Hi, As a matter of fact, I just merged a compatibility layer for the old CLI: https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/pull/846
It might not be perfect yet, but it parses and processes the old options and even suggests mappings to the new options. I have also improved detection of the command-line interface being used. I even worked on mapping the --plugin option, which is far from a fun thing to do. I can successfully connect with variable options and plugins using the old CLI. I have also tried a couple of edge cases where the old CLI and the new CLI look alike. >From there, we basically have everything which was asked in this discussion: support for the POSIX-style syntax and compatibility with the old command-line options. The rest is just bug fixing and improvements on top of that in preparation for the 1.1 release. As for using the mailing list, yes, it ought to be used. Another discussion for which I would really appreciate some help is the design of a better debug/log system. The current one is severely limited, and there is a large number of requirements which an ideal debug/log system would need to meet. Since this affects everyone and pretty much all the code, I need your input on this. We're currently collecting information on this wiki page: https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/Debug-System I repeat, I need input on this. I'd rather have it before than after it's changed. It's a tough design question, and I'd rather make the change to a well designed debug system once than switch to something partially proper and still need to change it a lot later on.
