It fixes minor bitrot. I've described how to get it working, with a<br>
screencast, here:<br>

I'd really like to see an HTML/JavaScript version of the Java client to<br>
move away from applets. It'd make a fun project and demo I think.<br>
<br>
It would also help reduce the reliance on X11 for screen sharing so if a<br>
move is made towards doing a non-X11 backend that functionality is still<br>
possible.<br>
<br>
With regards to a non-X11 backend I was wondering if SDL2 would be a<br>
good option. It provides hardware acceleration cross platform and works<br>
on Android as well as Windows.<br>
