Ahh news...
+2.4.0.8 stuff:
+
+- New script to aid in testing graphical greeter themes, gdmthemetester.
+ It will run Xnest with gdmgreeter in debug mode with the specified theme
+ and under the specified environment. Run it to get help.
+
+- No longer 'asks twice' in graphical login to halt, reboot or suspend
+ Fixes #90971
+
+- When restarting the greeter from the setup dialog the setup dialog will go
+ insensitive and force a busy cursor on itself.
+
+- New icon! And new logo. The new icon is now girlfriend approved (she said
+ it's not as bad as my first attempt to draw one, so I suppose that means
+ it's ok). Not that I did ALL the drawing, I borrowed the gnome-term icon
+ and worked on that :)
+
+- The focus stuff in both greeters is done in a nicer way. Also the graphical
+ greeter has a "menubar" (invisible). You can activate it with F10 like any
+ other menubar. This all should make both greeters even more accessibility
+ friendly.
+
+- The Init/PreSession/PostSession directories can now also include Flexi,
+ and XDMCP scripts which will be run in case the server is flexi or XDMCP.
+ Also you can specify a <hostname> script to run for specific hosts.
+
+- You can now setup the daemon to log in certain local (not logging in
+ through xdmcp) users without a password, Just set the
+ daemon/LocalNoPasswordUsers to a list of comma separated names.
+ Fixes #51908
+
+- The daemon is fixed so that if pam asks questions during autologin, they
+ will actually get asked.
+
+- gdmphotosetup no longer hangs on "Browse". Fixes #90613
+
+- Busy cursor will never get stuck on autologin
+
+- Wait 2 seconds beween killing local servers on daemon restart or stop. This
+ prevents a hung keyboard on my box.
+
+- Xnest keyboard stuff solved in a better way. Remove the -kb fromt he command
+ line so that Xnest understands XKB, and then in the Init script migrate
+ keyboard configuration. Also read capslock state from the parent server
+ in the greeter.
+
+- Close the 0,1,2 descriptors in the gdmXnestchooser so that things like
+ "`gdmXnest -b`" shell things to get the display number work.
+
+- gdmXnestchooser acts more nicely on being killed
+
+- Config file is updated and includes more "documentation" comments
+
+- If you haven't changed the config then if you are using the tarball install,
+ the config will be overwritten with the one from the tarball.
+
+- An incredible "sleep(1)" hack to fix race on server reinit
+
+- A whole bunch of random small fixes, and changes.
+
+- Translation updates (He Qiangqiang, Wang Li, Marius Andreiana,
+ Yukihiro Nakai)
+
2.4.0.7 stuff:
- The graphical greeter has mnemonics so that you can use the keyboard to
