Summary     : The core Java library used by the Guacamole web application
Description :
Guacamole is an HTML5 web application that provides access to desktop
environments using remote desktop protocols such as VNC or RDP. A centralized
server acts as a tunnel and proxy, allowing access to multiple desktops through
a web browser. No plugins are needed: the client requires nothing more than a
web browser supporting HTML5 and AJAX.

guacamole-common is the core Java library used by the Guacamole web application.
guacamole-common provides abstract means of connecting to guacd, interfacing
with the JavaScript client and tunnel provided by guacamole-common-js, and
reading configuration from a standard location (guacamole.properties).
