Description Pierre Ossman cendio 2016-10-06 16:04:15 CEST 
It lacks many basic features and has severe bugs. It's doubtful many, if any, customers actually use this function. We should consider removing it in order to reduce the maintenance burden and avoid any risk of it tainting the product's image.

Handing over to product council for a decision on what to do.
Comment 2 Pierre Ossman cendio 2016-10-13 15:14:42 CEST 
Sent a mail to thinlinc-technical to see if anyone uses this feature:

Comment 3 Pierre Ossman cendio 2016-11-15 13:14:03 CET 
All feedback we've gotten is that noone is using this. We can go ahead and remove the feature.
