I have a few copyright questions:
* The code in src/vnc-server.c seems to have come from a support 
  template, probably VNC itself.  What is the origin of this code,
  and do you have the rights to redistribute it, and under what
  copyright?
* The "fonts" directory - where did these come from?  None of them
  have copyright claims (or disclaimers).

We'll need to iron these out before I can merge the code into the
repository.

Other than these technical details, I like it and want to "publish"
it as soon as possible.

Thanks.
