Erm, no. Sorry. I meant 'upstream' as in the xrdp project. Apologies for the
confusion. I wouldn't want to give you the impression that I was in any way
connected with Ubuntu. And on that note...

I agree with the principle, but given that there seem to be less people on
Ubuntu working on xrdp than there are on Debian (i.e. none), the implication
is that we're in in a place where things simply can't be fixed, even by
proposing a patch to Debian which wouldn't affect Debian at all. Is that
indeed the case? If it is,that's fine - I'm just trying to determine the
a way of working here which benefits both of us.

That's grand.

Thanks for the info,
