Re: [gtk-vnc-devel] Supporting VMware VNC extensions in gtk-vnc

["Ramesh Dharan" <rrdharan vmware com>]

Hi Anthony, 

Yes the mailing list is still very much alive but I'm not really working on
VNC-related stuff anymore.

We will be adding support for appropriate server<->client message negotiation
but this isn't in any shipping products yet. Dustin Byford (who also reads
this list) is heading all the VNC protocol development work these days and
he's probably a better contact person than me. I know Dustin has the
negotiation fixes on his plate to tackle in the near term; I believe he also
has a better protocol document available.

Hi Ramesh,

I hope this mailing list is still live.  I noticed in the most recent 
RFB spec that the encoding range used by VMware is now reserved.  I'd 
like to add support for these extensions to gtk-vnc.  I'm wondering if 
there's more definitive documentation than [1].  Specifically, for the 
new client/server messages, does the server support a negotiation 
mechanism yet as recommended in the RFB spec?
