I started down the path of creating an EPEL branch for EL5, but the policies

when I was told that I would have to backport the code to make it work with the 
legacy system libraries.  I'd still be willing
to maintain that RPM and provide it via TigerVNC's download page (assuming 
that's OK with the other devs).  The build is based
on DRC's build script so the resulting binaries could also be packaged as a 
tarball and would likely function on other distros.

Thanks for your work on this.

The Xvnc and vncviewer that we ship in ThinLinc are known to work on a wide range of distributions. We have thought of using the same system for doing nightly builds of he upstream TigerVNC source as well, but unfortunately we haven't been able to find time for this yet.

Pierre is working on the keyboard handling (XKB), but as soon as this work is complete, we can create a 1.3 beta.
