Ahh news...
+2.5.90.0 stuff:
+
+- Add accessibility setting to gdmsetup and allow setting an arbitrary
+ sound for the "ready for login" sound. (#125487)
+
+- gdmflexiserver now lists running sessions if there are some and allow
+ the users to easily switch. (#127038)
+
+- Display last login when the user enters their name (can be turned
+ off) (#128940)

+- Inactive flexiservers are reaped by default after 5 minutes.
+

+ an action was started (#125153)
+
+- Doubleclicking on a language in graphical greeter selects it
+ (Kirk Mitchener, #123199)
+
+- Optional info message on login (sort of like motd) (Anton Altaparmakov,
+ #125219)
+
+- New SUP (socket protocol) commands to request shutdown/reboot after
+ session ends or after all users log out. Also new SUP commands for
+ querying and setting the VT on Linux.
+

+ GO is sent through the fifo before going further.
+

+ <datadir>/gdm/BuiltInSessions
+
+- Fix chooser commonication vs. accessibility stuff (#125064)
+
+- Fix RetryDelay and make it default to 1 and not 3 (Leena Gunda, me, #128507)
+
+- On AIX without PAM, password expiration is done (Vincent Berger, me, #123766)
+
+- On crypt/shadow the double login warning was too early, now done after
+ authentication as in the PAM setup.

+
+- Warn the user when they want to set root as autologin (RH #97716)
+
+- StandardXServer can now have arguments

+- Default color is now #76848F and the PreSession script tries
+ to use the default gdm color to fix #128220
+
+- Fix assert failure when starting Xnest (#127780)
+
+- Lots of cleanup and fixes and adding to the general paranoia in the
+ code. (me, Ray Strode, Brian Cameron)
+
