I meant to note earlier: the upstream NX developers have gone non-free, no?

Is there a free software development branch?
Presumably the freenx developers will fork the 3.x branch, but this relies on NoMachine continuing to distribute a 3.x-compatible client. If they cease distributing the older client, the freenx-server folks will have difficulties.
Some other alternatives, references from the above wikipedia page:
http://code.google.com/p/neatx/ (no client?) http://code.google.com/p/partiwm/wiki/xpra (not a remote desktop, but at least GPL)
