- Updated thunderbird to 3.1.2
- Mousetweaks improved

          gnome-volume-control setting to use the correct device when
          playing system sounds.
- Updates to gobjects
- Updated pyyaml to 3.0.9
- Removed obsoleted modules

- Improvements to the first time login helper so that it better supports a11y.
- Updated nwan-manager to 1.146.0
