Veyon 4.4.0
-
We're happy to announce a new stable release series starting with Veyon 4.4.0. The most notable change is the updated VNC and networking stack which provides even better reliability. As a result Veyon 4.4 uses slightly different techniques and settings when establishing connections to client computers, so the new version should be tested thoroughly before deployment. As usual all downloads are available at https://veyon.io/download/

- Core: use updated VNC and network stack (libvncserver 0.9.13.)
