This release removes a bundled VNC server, use of `jupyter-remote-desktop-proxy`
requires both `websockify` and a VNC server - TigerVNC and TurboVNC are
officially supported. For tested examples on how to install `websockify` and
officially supported VNC servers, see [this project's Dockerfile].
This project now publishes basic but tested images built on
[quay.io/jupyter/base-notebook] from the [jupyter/docker-stacks] to
[quay.io/jupyterhub/jupyter-remote-desktop-proxy]. Their purpose is currently
not scoped beyond use for testing and providing an example on how to install
officially supported VNC servers.
The Ctrl-Alt-Delete button is currently removed, but intended to be added back.
This is tracked by [this GitHub issue].
