+**Current Features**
+
+- Graphic commands - processes and transmits 2D graphic commands
+- Video streaming - heuristically identifies video streams and transmits M-JPEG
+ video streams
+- Image compression - offers verios compression algorithm that were built
+ specifically for Spice, including QUIC (based on SFALIC), LZ, GLZ
+ (history-based global dictionary), and auto (heuristic compression choice per
+ image)
+- Hardware cursor - processes and transmits cursor-specific commands
+- Image, palette and cursor caching - manages client caches to reduce bandwidth
+ requirements
+- Live migration - supports clients while migrating Spice servers to new hosts,
+ thus avoiding interruptions
+- Windows drivers - Windows drivers for QXL display device and VDI-port
+- Multiple monitors
+- Client for Linux and Window - can be easily ported to additional platform
+ platforms.
+- Two way audio - supports audio playback and captures; audio data stream is
+ optionally compressed using CELT Encryption - using OpenSSL
+- Two mouse modes - provides client (more user-friendly) and server (increased
+ accuracy and fully synchronized) modes
+- Lip-sync - synchronizes video streams with audio clocks
+- Spice agent - running on the guest and performs tasks for the client
+- Clipboard sharing - allows copy paste between clients and the virtual machine
+
+**Future Features**
+
+- Network tunneling (in progress) - using virtual network interface to enable
+ sharing of network resources. Currently the focus is on printer sharing but is
+ not limited to that.
+- Off-screen surfaces (in progress) - supports off-screen surfaces as
+ infrastructure for future DirectDraw, video acceleration and 3D acceleration.
+ GDI and X11 will also benefit from this feature. It will also lay foundation
+ for multi-head support
+- USB sharing (in progress) - allows clients to share their USB devices with
+ Spice servers
+- Direct Draw Client GUI - Enables user-friendly configuration
+- Screen management - add support for enabling selection of the screen used by
+ the client
+- Configuration file - enables persistent user and administrative settings
+- CD sharing - share your CD with Spice server
+- Video acceleration
+- 3D acceleration Support Aero
+- Linux features parity
+- OSX client
+- Simultaneous clients connection
