"The X2Go Person"
About Me
I am a system administrator. I contribute to X2Go and various related/upstream open source projects in my free time. I just started contributing to some related areas in Fedora too.
In general, I find remote desktop to be very cool and I want it to be great part of the Linux OS. X2Go is my preferred remote desktop solution, but there are integration issues that X2Go needs to tackle with the help of Fedora, FreeDesktop.org, and the other open source remote desktop solutions that are actively maintained (TigerVNC, TurboVNC, SPICE, the RDP solutions, and the upcoming Arctica Project.)
Current Activities within Fedora
Working on packaging GNOME Flashback
Answering questions from Flock in the upstream X2Go FAQ and wikipedia page on NX technology
I also fix various Fedora/EPEL integration bugs in upstream X2Go. (xinitrc.d script support, Published Apps, etc.) User:Orion maintains the Fedora/EPEL X2Go packages (and does an excellent job.)
Planned Activities within Fedora
Officially becoming an ambassador.
Helping Fedora Cloud collaborate with Linode (probably through PLUG).
Using TRIM to shrink cloud/Vagrant images.
An "XSession Chooser" for VNC & XSpice.
Improving XSpice
Improving integration between Remote Desktop solutions and the Linux desktop in general
Possible Future Activities within Fedora
Making it easy/convenient for Java developers to create RPM packages from Maven instead of rpmbuild, and get them through the package review process with only data/metadata to review (no logic.)
Helping with various Windows/Mac clients or tools to help people migrate to Fedora (e.g., liveusb-creator.) An official suite of "Windows client apps" for Fedora.
Remote Desktop integration with Wayland.
Events
"Remote Desktop & Fedora" talk at Flock 2015 Slides Video
Upstream Events
FLOSS Weekly episode (295) on X2Go
Other Interests
Debian, Arch and other distros that focus on working with upstream
Cygwin (I am a package maintainer)
Architectures/ARM (for remote desktop clients)
Proper sacrifice techniques for ensuring five nines of uptime
