immediate:
----------

fix bug in http (java) client with big endian server: byte swapping is broken
update to newest TridiaVNC version.

later:
------

udp
documentation
optionally dont draw rich cursors as xcursors
autoconf? at least Sun Solaris and Windows compilation
perhaps the option (or just hint) not to mark very tiny regions as modified,
	because that is inefficient for the encodings.
rfbConnect, ConnectToTcpAddr
CORBA
cursor "smears" sometimes when not using cursor encoding
	(seems to be gone now; haven't debugged properly, though)

done:
-----

.adapt rdp2vnc (rdesktop)
.pthreads concept: How to iterate over rfbClientPtr's? So that it can be
	 either called from rfbProcessEvents (which locks the list mutex)
	 or from the main thread (where the background loop sometimes
	 locks the list mutex).
	- cursor drawing!
	- cursor setting!
	- rfbMarkRectAsModified
  (did that by adding a refcount to clients secured by refCountMutex;
   it also was necessary to check for cl->sock<0 in SendUpdateBuf)
.translate.c: warning about non 8-bit colourmaps
	16-bit colourmaps are 192k -> no use without fast net.
.rfbCloseClient
.set colourmap
.support 3 bytes per pixel
.cursors
.cutpaste
.httpd
.other encodings
.test drawing of cursors when not using xcursor or rich cursor encoding
fix bug with odd width (depends on client depth: width has to be multiple of server.bytesPerPixel/client.bytesPerPixel). only raw!! -> bug of vncviewer!
.use sraRegion from Wez instead of miregion, because it is much smaller
.	- connection gone and then reconnect is a problem
	  the reason: there are in fact three threads accessing
	  the clientPtr: input, output and the application thread.
	  if you kill the viewer or do rfbCloseClient, all of those
	  three have to be warned that this is happening.
	-> rfbClientConnectionGone can only be called by the outer loop
	(with background loop, it is input, else it is processEvents).
