Jay -- That clear up a lot of my confusion, thank you! Is it correct that the 0.4 and 0.5 branches are on sourceforge (branchv040a and branchv050a), but not on GitHub, or am I missing some git feature regarding branches? I am NOT a git user -- my experience is with SVN (and CVS, and RCS, and SCCS ... :-)

There is a 0.5 branch and 0.6 is the latest master that we are planning to call 0.7 when it's released and skip 0.6. I've been meaning to collect all the 0.5 patches and do an official 0.5 release. This mainly involves contacting the Debian and Redhat package maintainers and getting their diffs. There are some stability issues that I'm working on in 0.6/0.7 so I think 0.5 is currently the most stable. Originally, xrdp was a CVS sourceforge project but how the latest development is on git hub. For info, see the Documents section of the web page(www.xrdp.org). I've gotten some renewed interest in developing xrdp and I've started spending much more time on it. The main focus of my efforts are in X11rdp, the Xserver used in xrdp. I hope this helps explain the current status.
