Hallo Mike, I very glad that you starting to work on new project related to X2Go.
However, I'm not sure, that it is a right place to discuss such projects. This is a "X2go-dev" list. It mean, that here is all about developing of X2Go. As you can see on http://www.x2go.org, X2Go components are: x2goclient/plugin, x2goserver, x2gothinclient, x2goadmintools. I am personally very glad, that there are new interesting projects related to x2go and I hope that we will have even more such projects in future, but I also think, that discussion of such projects in X2Go-dev list is off-topic. Possible, we should create a mailing list for discussing of x2go related projects such pyHoca and python-x2goserver API. What are you think about it?
