Hi, Sorry for jumping in in the middle of the thread, but the whole discussion about a js/html5 client triggered me to put in my 2 cents: It already is possible to configure a qemu vm with both spice and vnc external displays (which will be mirrors of each other). Not sure if libvirt allows this

Hi Guys, I've also been contemplating an alternative html5/js client, and as far as I remember, Alon proposed an extension to spice-server to actually contain a http server to serve the content to the browser. But it seems like a too big project to take on alone :) Best Regards, Attila --
