"Sun is preparing to release new Sunrays. The first is SunRay 2, it has one DVI connector for monitors, with the USB ports on the front, a much needed improvement, and an integrated stand. The second looks much like the first but comes with dual DVI outputs for dual headed setups." On a related note, Sun has laid off seven per cent of its SPARC processor and server group, as it pares back projects in an effort to save costs.

I would say that it's the perfect moment to start a project to create an open source implementation of the SunRay server software (SRSS), at least with the basic functionalities.
It shouldn't be too difficult as there has already been some work done on trying to decode the protocol : see http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/sunray/ or http://www.leonerd.org.uk/sunray/ for example.
At last, I could use my SunRay @ home without the actual software beast that SRSS is, which I find very difficult to install and to configure :-)
Anyone ready to tackle this challenge ?
