I am interested in Ubuntu package, but others are interested in Debian.
We are using launchpad to host the code.

I will try to get included into Ubuntu. I'm hopping they are less

NX libraries will not be accepted into Debian [5].

They are not working on the package. The problem is the duplication

If they want they can grab our package. I use FreeNX in 2 servers

Anyway, thanks for your answer in advance. I hope all you people doing
