Recently i have made some patches to Vino – GNOME Desktop Remote Access. I think it is a very important piece of software in GNOME project, mainly in a enterprise environment.
Let’s consider them as my Christmas gift 
Bug #326827
With this patch, Vino Preferences applet allows only one instance running. I’m using very fresh library gtkUnique to do the dirty job – waiting approval to commit.
Bug #319798
Vino-preferences now shows the right display number. I’ve added d-bus capability on vino-server to do this job. – commited.
Bug #154467
This patch adds a notification area icon when there is somebody connected on your desktop. It allows you to disconnect any remote machines – or all of them. – commited.
Bug #387095
This patch shows a notification bubble in the new notification area icon – using libnotify – when a user connects. – waiting approval to commit.
Merry Christmas!
Let’s remember the true reason of Christmas – the birth of Jesus Christ.

Vino is a great VNC server, it’s really nicely integrated with GNOME. And your patches make it twice as useful. It looks really promising for the next version, and I hope they land in cvs/svn. Thank you very much.
I hope you don’t mind that I’m not christian, though. But merry christmas to you too!
Yes, thank you for the reminder of your borrowed deity-birthday.
Thanks so much for these patches to Vino! I particularly enjoyed seeing the little “vino in use” notification icon pop up while I was using my TV computer.
Merry Christmas!
Ahem… the _original_ reason for the celebration during this time of year is due to the winter solstice.
Thanks for the vino improvements, and a merry Christ-mas to you too! Long live the King!
btw, it would be nice to have a dialog which tells you which ports you have to forward in your router..
Thank you very much!
Fala, cara!! Que mudança radical no template.
I have used vnc software, never use vino,but i think this is useful patch.
This makes everything so completely palneiss.
