It is nice that someone is going to port more apps for the Atari.
What would be the application for this on the Atari?
I used/tested Synergy at my workplace because we do have situation where there 
is a cluster of systems but found the normal KVM, or even RDP more useful 
because these don't extra monitors.
For my Atari, I have several system up sharing a single monitor via a KVM,  but 
not individual keyboard/mouse (as needs eiffle to share a normal PS/2 device).

These are Infrastructure type applications.... personally I think if user-end 
type applications (office type, graphics etc) are ported, more ppl will turn to 
Mint.
Just my 2 cents.
