I'd like to drop FreeNX from our extra repo. It's not maintained for several years now though it can still do its job pretty well with some heavy patching and sed commands fixing things that have changed meanwhile.
We've already dropped the closed NoMachine NX client and I'd like to drop OpenNX along with FreeNX because there's a successor out there named X2go.
X2go packages are in extra: a functional replacement with the same and better features. And it's well maintained upstream.
nx-common pkg with remaining NoMachine libs is only required by FreeNX and OpenNX and can be removed too then.
Any objections or somebody who wants to take over these packages?
-Andy +1 x2go works well.
