GDM2 2.16.1 (stable), the "Hyde Park" Release


AOOH-GAH
--------

(If you have no clue what GDM is, skip a few paragraphs down first)

The 2.16.1 release is a stable release of GDM with the following
new features:

- Use g_markup_printf_escaped so gdmsetup better handles
   description strings that contains things similar to a tag
   like an email address.  Fixes bug #357998.  (Matthias
   Clasen)

- Fix gdmsetup so that the window manager close button works
   as the Close button in the dialog (Matthias Clasen)

- Fix for bug #352838, avoid crashing by moving call to get
   GDM_KEY_SYSTEM_MENU until after authentication check.
   (Frederic Crozat)

- Add g_type_init() to gdmflexiserver since this is needed
   for -a (authentication) code to work.

- Translation updates (Rahul Bhalerao, Runa Bhattacharjee,
   Alessio Frusciante, Priit Laes, David Lodge,
   \303\205smund Skj\303\246veland)

Note:  GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp <at> mkp.net>.
Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl, and Brian Cameron
