Another security update! 

The bug fix release TigerVNC 1.16.1 is now available. This release is primarily a 
security release to fix an issue in x0vncserver, where other users can observe and 
manipulate the screen contents. Users of x0vncserver are advised to update immediately.

The release also contains a fix for using the Plain security type with the new 
w0vncserver, as well as some translation updates.

Summary: tigervnc-1.16.1 → tigervnc-1.16.2

Now at 1.16.2. 

This is a second attempt at a bug fix release for the security issue in x0vncserver.
The TigerVNC 1.16.1 release unfortunately had all fixes except the security fix.

Apologies for the extra noise and confusion.

I'm going to reassign these to the book for now so whoever wants to do them can do them.

In the meantime I will continue working on rivendell, but I do not want to continue holding the project back on important issues.
