Gleich mal als Hinweis: Für den 3.12. kann ich keine definitive Zusage
geben, also am besten meinen Vortrag verschieben.

Und "the dreaded x2go clipboard bug" ist hoffentlich vom letzten Jahr,
der aktuelle NX head tut meines Erachtens perfekt. Ich hab dir ja
Testanleitungen geschrieben, die geltern weiterhin, nur halt für den
main-Zweig. (Ausserdem war es ja nicht nur ein Bug, sondern mehrere.
Das lässt sich nicht sauber sagen, weil ich alles x mal umgebaut
hab...)
