|
During the GNOME Conference, David Sugar and myself
discussed creating a new enterprise ready desktop
design based on X and GNOME. We're hoping that this
becomes a platform which can allow for greater use of
Linux Desktops for enterprise programming development.
The essential aspects of this desktop is that their will
be a dameon server which gives a standard X sceme. Plugging
in a computer anywhere on the network will allow for the client
to querry the server dameon. The dameom will then set up nuatiluis
icons for standard desktop setups and then allow for authentication
for more specific icons and set up orperties.
The icons, when clicked, will launch X programs on the SERVER to
display on the client, making full use of X's authentication and
networking capabilities, and destroying the concepts of 'thin clients'
and 'network shares' which are currently prevelent.
This should probibly be a FSCC project as well.
We need to get together to discuss the outlines of the technology for
this projects, and developement schedule.
