So, GDM is rather large, and very tied to the GNOME desktop environment, 
dtlogin is being sadly jettisoned, and everyone seems opposed to xdm for some 
reason.

Anyone have any comments about replacing it with something like SLiM ( 
http://slim.berlios.de ), which is lighter, has less dependencies & is desktop 
environment agnostic ( all good things, imo ) and can be themed all pretty to 
boot.

Both GDM and SLiM are GPL, so either way we're left with viral licenses. 

Bear in mind, I haven't done any footwork on this yet. Some time next week  
I'll build & Solaris-up SLiM and real evaluations can begin, but for now, just 
asking for comments on the idea
