FreeRDP becomes cloudy

As I mentioned in some of my former posts, the FreeRDP project makes progress in becomming a platform for cloud based desktop services.

Fritz Elfert started a project called FreeRDP WebConnect. The project provides a gateway which allows a JavaScript based browser client to connect to a RDP server. The connection between the client and the gateway is based on websockets.

The JavaScript client implements a virtual keyboard for the RIM playbook.

UPDATE: The FreeRDP project (powered by ThinStuff) published a Android and an iOS version in the app stores. Here you get the details.
