For example, sending desktop video to icecast server using normal existing tool gave me 7 second delay in whole operation that too i am using 100x100 resolution. Video transmission is much more efficient then frame by frame transmission what exactly he is doing. If you want to make something better or similar to teamviewer then look if they have made any open protocols or what is the work done which is better or something very innovative like sending instructional drawing like SVG rather then depending on pixel... SVG is a good role and scope in this.. One last point, I am not dictating that what you discuss on mailing list and what not, but it will be great if you guys can carry all the contribution+development type of discussion on http://groups.google.com/group/oscontrib mailing list or else we can device a better way or platform where we can discuss this expect.
