Thanks tons for your work Bernhard, Out or curiosity - are these nightly builds based on FreeRDPmaster? I couldn't see any tags with 2.0 on Github. Also, do you plan to tag a 2.0 build for inclusion in Debian? Best regards and thanks, Niklas On 11/01/16 10:45, Bernhard Miklautz wrote: >

Hi Arlo, Thank you for your feedback, and you are right, it can be very hard to stay in sync with the bleeding edge of FreeRDP. In this case, the stable branch of FreeRDP may be better suited for you. If you base your work on the stable branch, you won't be getting new features as as fast as they
