Dear Wez et al,

Can I please request a security type be allocated for me to add an extension to the RFB protocol? I have implemented an encrypted VNC stream, which I am calling "VeNCrypt".

The VeNCrypt security mechanism is based on Martin Koegler's TLS for VNC, but with only a single security type required within the initial hand-shake. If this security type is chosen by the client, a second round of "server sends list of (sub-)types / client picks one" occurs before continuing with the TLS as implemnted by Martin. As far as I can tell, this is exactly what Wez suggested up a couple of months ago - that was the intention anyway.
