22/12/2016 - xorgxrdp v0.2.0 has been released

This is the initial release of xorgxrdp. xorgxrdp is a backend for xrdp - an open source remote desktop protocol server.

Until recently, most xrdp users were using some kind of a Xvnc server as a backend. Another option is X11rdp - an X server built as an xrdp backend.

xorgxrdp is a lightweight alternative to both. xorgxrdp is not an X server. Rather, it's a set of modules for Xorg that make it act just like X11rdp. In fact, xorgxrdp takes most of its code from X11rdp.

Like X11rdp, xorgxrdp can resize an existing session then a new RDP client connects.

xorgxrdp supports RDP clients of every color depth - 8, 15, 16, 24 and 32, while using 24-bit TrueColor internally.

Steps to compile and install xorgxrdp are described in the included README.md file.
