[Thomas Thurman <tthurman gnome org>]

Here is the reason why we're releasing a day or so after the last one 
with almost no changes:

I suspect, since the group was added back in 2002, that it was a very, 
very ancient version of gnome-session that needed it.  In any case, any 
code which DOES exist and needs this group will have been broken by the 
move anyway!
