Fantastic news! I played with it a bit on an Ace2, and I found it great.
Thanks for your hard work!

I am mostly missing guest auto-resize and sound support :) Did you hit
technical problems or limitations from Android, or with enough time all
should be solvable?

Btw, there is no build instructions I could find, but it looks like
ndk-build from command line should do it.

However, you use many prebuilt static libraries from /opt/android. How did
you get those? (at some point I started looking at cerbero from the
gstreamer-sdk to be able to build spice-gtk from scratch for different
platforms)

Yes, feel free to propose changes in spice-gtk to make your life easier, or
to improve Android support.

Should your client be featured on spice-space.org? it's GPL and code is
available, so I guess it could.

thanks!
