I dunno how to work that actually.  Strings will change in HEAD (I have a
couple of FIXMEs I want to do, so there will be some changes, plus I think
a whole pile of strings that should be trnslated aren't and such) so I'm not
sure if merging will work.

In any case, I doubt there will be a lot of such releases since again I won't
really have time to do much work.  I expect mostly minor changes.  Only in
case that someone starts doing some major development in HEAD, or if HEAD
destabilizes for some reason, will the branch really be used.

It's just since I don't have that much time right now with school so I don't
really want to maintain two branches.  (In any case for security stuff I have
to backport the 2-2 branch too)  There are really only two major series of
GNOME2.x versions of GDM and I'd like to keep it that way :)
