Hi,

This new release of the xpra html5 client received a major version bump 
mainly because the new offscreen rendering worker achieves noticeably 
better performance, especially when paired with the nvjpeg encoder 
server-side.
The new fullscreen alt-tab and keycloak authenticator will also be of 
interest to many, then there are lots of other smaller improvements and 
fixes.
Many thanks to all the contributors for the PRs and github issues.

The full release notes can be found here:
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra-html5/releases/tag/v5.0


There are now a number of forks of the xpra-html5 client, including some 
new ones, each with their own strengths and weaknesses:
https://github.com/andersevenrud/xpra-html5-client
https://github.com/fungaren/xpra-html5-vue
https://github.com/os-js/osjs-xpra-application
And there are many more VDI solutions and tools based on these, 
including some that have not been released yet.
We are discussing how best to avoid the duplication of effort on this 
discord channel:

Feel free to join to discuss all things related to the html5 client.

Cheers
Antoine
