GDM 2.6.0.2 (stable) has been released



This release has some major bugfixes especially some long pending PAM fixes and basically I integrated a bunch of patches from bugzilla. Also the IPv6 support is now off by default since it's still not as reliable as the IPv4 code, and really, if you need IPv6 for your private lab of X terminals, there is something wrong with your head. It does make for a good buzzphrase however: "IPv6 enabled!"
