That looks very interesting. I tried to do something similar last year 
using a VNC connection instead, with mixed results. This looks much more 
elegant. I'll be very interested to try it. It seems building and 
installing is a major issue with it at the moment (because everyone has 
different environments). We should clearly get it packaged for Ubuntu.

I don't know anything about Xnee, but I know that Chris wrote some 
simple C code to inject keystrokes for onBoard, without using Xnee or 
AT-SPI.

Thanks for pointing this out!
