GNOME Shell 3.16 RC fixes user list accessibility in the GDM (GNOME Display Manager) login manager, improves the Classic theme, fixes ordering and dismissing of calendar events, fixes handling of removed smartcard at startup, fixes the ???empty user list??? issue on user switching, makes the menu selection behavior consistent with GTK, and will no longer pick random sessions for the user in the login screen.
