I have a few copyright questions:
* The code in src/vnc-server.c seems to have come from a support
template, probably VNC itself. What is the origin of this code,
and do you have the rights to redistribute it, and under what
copyright?
* The "fonts" directory - where did these come from? None of them
have copyright claims (or disclaimers).
We'll need to iron these out before I can merge the code into the
repository.
Other than these technical details, I like it and want to "publish"
it as soon as possible.
Thanks.
