    [misc] Update AUTHORS, HACKING, README

    all my modules.

-=====================
+gnome-desktop
+=============
 
-	This package is free software and is part of the
-GNOME project.
+gnome-desktop contains the libgnome-desktop library, the gnome-about
+program as well as some desktop-wide documents.
 
-	The package contains the libgnome-desktop library
-which contains APIs that really belong in libgnome[ui] but
-have not seen enough testing or development to be considered
-stable. Use at your own risk.
+The libgnome-desktop library provides API shared by several applications
+on the desktop, but that cannot live in the platform for various
+reasons. There is no API or ABI guarantee, although we are doing our
+best to provide stability. Documentation for the API is available with
+gtk-doc.
 
-	Also contained here are documents installed as part
-of the core GNOME distribution, e.g. a copy of the GPL, the
-gnome-about program, some manpages and GNOME's core graphics
-files and icons. 
+The gnome-about program helps find which version of GNOME is installed.
