0.9.9
2+
- Overall changes:
3+
* Added noVNC HTML5 VNC viewer (http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/) connect possibility
4+
to our http server. Pure JavaScript, no Java plugin required anymore! (But a
5+
recent browser...)
6+
* Added a GTK+ VNC viewer example.
7+
8+
- LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
9+
* Added support to build for Google Android.
10+
* Complete IPv6 support in both LibVNCServer and LibVNCClient.
11+
12+
- LibVNCServer:
13+
* Split two event-loop related functions out of the rfbProcessEvents() mechanism.
14+
This is required to be able to do proper event loop integration with Qt. Idea was
15+
taken from Vino's libvncserver fork.
16+
* Added TightPNG (http://wiki.qemu.org/VNC_Tight_PNG) encoding support. Like the
17+
original Tight encoding, this still uses JPEG, but ZLIB encoded rects are encoded
18+
with PNG here.
19+
* Added suport for serving VNC sessions through WebSockets
20+
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket), a web technology providing for multiplexing
21+
bi-directional, full-duplex communications channels over a single TCP connection.
22+
* Support connections from the Mac OS X built-in VNC client to LibVNCServer
23+
instances running with no password.
24+
* Replaced the Tight encoder with a TurboVNC one which is tremendously faster in most
25+
cases, especially with high-color video or 3D workloads.
26+

27+
28+
- LibVNCClient:
29+
* Added support to only listen for reverse connections on a specific IP address.
30+
* Support for using OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS. This could come in handy on embedded
31+
devices where only this TLS implementation is available.
32+
* Added support to connect to UltraVNC Single Click servers.
