4.5.92
======
- Hook up Help button in settings dialog.
- Implement support for the RestartImmediately restart style hint.
- Fix possible crash with uninitialised GError (bug 4202).
- Link libxfsm against all required libs to avoid link-time errors
  (bug 4429).
- Make splash engines store their settings in Xfconf.
- Handle the ProcessID SM property properly.
- Add a session editor to the settings dialog.
- Fix compilation on some Linux systems with a broken linux/ioprio.h
  header (bug 4515).
- Fix a possible crash on amd64 (bug 4510).
- Add support for suspend and hibernate via HAL.  Initial patch from
  Michael Casadevall (bug 2672).
- When restoring clients on startup, be sure to set their current
  working directory if the cwd was set as a part of their saved state.
- Add SaveSession kiosk capability (bug 2998).
- When a client requests interaction, don't continue to kill all other
  clients while it's still interacting.  And then don't ignore it when
  it wants to cancel shutdown.  Also fixes a similar problem when
  interaction is requested during a phase 2 save-yourself (bug 4284).

4.5.91
======
- Start up session in parallel to greatly shorten startup time (bug 4312).
- Add a D-Bus interface for some limited amount of remote control.
- Implement support for the ShutdownCommand SM property when a
  client has RestartAnyway set as its restart style hint.
- Implement support for the RestartNever restart style hint.
- sync() disks early in the shutdown process if on Linux and
  ioprio_set() is available (bug 4313).  Otherwise sync() right before
  quit as before (bug 4313).
- Check for a running gnome-keyring instance before launching
  a new one (bug 3007).
- Convert most of xfce4-session to use Xfconf.  Splash settings are still
  stored in the xfce4-splash.rc file.  The xfce4-session.rc file is no longer
  used, however.


4.5.90
======
- Modified settings-dialogs to work with the new settings-manager
- Fix compile-issues with -Wall -Werror in mice theme-engine and settings-dialogs
- Let xfce4-session start xfsettingsd automatically
- Remove dependency on deprecated NETK

4.4.0
=====
- Improve the logout dialog (Bug #2653).
- Fix poweroff on DragonFly BSD (Bug #2567).
- Use Xrender to fadeout the background if cairo is available.
- Updated translations: Carles Muñoz Gorriz (ca), Fabian Nowak (de),
                        Rudy Godoy (es), Maximilian Schleiss (fr), Andrey
                        Fedoseev (ru)
- New translations: Josip Dzolonga (mk)


4.3.99.2
========
- Remove references to xftaskbar4 and xfce4-iconbox and rename xffm to Thunar
  for the Tips'n'Tricks displayed on startup (#1332).
- Be sure to start Thunar prior to xfdesktop on first login to avoid the trash
  error from xfdesktop if the session bus is not configured properly (#2447).
- Applications that fail to startup on login do no longer time out, but are
  dropped immediately from the session, which results in faster startup in
  that case.
- Merge the sudo and the HAL shutdown helpers into a single shutdown helper,
  which tries to use HAL first, and falls back to sudo.
- Drop GLib 2.2.x compatibility code.
- Updated translations: Pau Rul-lan Ferragut (ca), Sylvain Vedrenne (eo),
			ByungHyun Choi (ko), Phan Vĩnh Thịnh (vi)
- New translations: Sonam Rinchen (dz)


4.3.99.1
========
- Add support for HAL to shutdown/reboot the computer. Must be enabled
  explicitly using --with-shutdown-style=hal to configure (Bug #2046).
- Do not try to save the xfce4-tips as part of the session (Bug #1089).
- Add shutdown/reboot support for Solaris (Bug #2230, Moinak Ghosh).
- Drop libgnome dependency for assistive technologies support.


4.3.90.2
========
- Update dialogs to use the new XfceTitledDialog.
- Properly handle OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn in the autostart editor.
- Run discard command when client terminates unexpectedly.


4.3.90.1
========
- Use the new standard location ($XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/autostart/) to specify
  applications that will be automatically start on session login. Autostart
  items from the previous location (~/Desktop/Autostart/) will be migrated
  automatically on first run of the new session manager.
- The list of autostarted applications can now be altered using a simple
  editor application (xfce4-autostart-editor).
- The xfce4-tips tool is now part of xfce4-session and well integrated with
  the new autostart mechanism.
