Gate One is an HTML5 web-based terminal emulator and SSH client. Top features:

• No browser plugins required!
• Supports multiple simultaneous terminal sessions. As many as your hardware can handle.
• Users can re-connect to their running terminals whenever they like from anywhere.
• Can be embedded into other applications. Add a terminal--running whatever application(s) you want--to your web app! Would be vastly superior to say, a Java-based serial console applet (hint hint).
• Includes powerful plugin system that supports plugins written in Python, JavaScript, and even CSS (yes, you can write a CSS-only plugin).
• The Gate One server can be stopped & started without users losing their running terminal applications (even SSH sessions stay connected!). In essence, worry-free upgrades!
• The SSH plugin allows users to duplicate sessions without having to re-enter their username and password (it re-uses the existing SSH tunnel).
• Provides users with the ability to play back and save/share their terminal sessions via a self-contained HTML playback file.
• Similarly, supports server-side logging, recording, and video-like playback of user sessions. It can even log to syslog to support whatever centralized logging system you want.
• Keberos-based Single Sign-on support is included. It even works with Active Directory. Other authentication options are available as well.

There is no live demo of Gate One at the moment but you can view a video demo here: http://vimeo.com/24857127

Gate One is currently IN BETA. Some things may be incomplete or buggy. Feel free to open new tickets in the issue tracker!

FYI: Gate One was developed entirely by one guy in his spare time over the course of ~9 months. It turned out pretty good so he's looking to start a business out of it. What better way to create jobs than to start by creating one for yourself? All feedback, tips, and advice is appreciated:
