MATE-Client in the libmateui library will be removed from the MATE software stack [1]. At this time, a replacement for the session management client has not been added to GTK+. The code in this directory is a copy of the session management source code in the libegg library. Hopefully, this will be a temporary solution. The bugzilla report at bugs.mate.org is #79285, "session management support". [1] http://live.mate.org/LibmateMustDie
