+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.9 to GLib 2.25.10
+====================================================
+
++----------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus. Users of these |
+| APIs will need to be adapted. In particular, a new release of |
+| dconf is required to go along with this one. There has also |
+| been a change in the GSettings backend API used for keyfiles. |

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.8 to GLib 2.25.9
+===================================================
+
++----------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus, GSettings and |
+| GApplication. Users of these APIs will need to be adapted. In |
+| particular, a new release of GTK+ is required to go along with |
+| this one. |
++----------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+* GDBus
+ - Use Gio's default async implementation
+ - Fix proxy construction for objects with no properties
+ - Fix error handling in synchronous initialization
+ - Do not dispatch calls to unregistered objects
+ - Add _with_closures alternative functions
+ - Allow constructing GDBusProxy with well-known names
+ - Remove GType parameters from GDBusProxy constructors
+ - Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy API
+ - Add --xml to gdbus-tool to print raw introspected XML
+
+* GSettings
+ - schema file format change: store (default, options) in gvdb

+ to fundamental. We believe there were no existing users
+ of the boxed type, so this should not cause any applications
+ to break.

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.22.x to GLib 2.23.0
+===================================================
+
+* GIO:
+ - GConverter: a generic interface for stateful conversions of data,
+ suitable for charset conversion, compression, decompression, regexp
+ replacement. Concrete implementations are GCharsetConverter,
+ GZlibCompressor and GZlibDecompressor. GConverterInputStream,
+ GConverterOutputStream are stream implementations that convert data
+ while loading or saving it.
+ - GMounts can now have a 'default location': a path that reflects
+ the main entry point for the user (e.g. the home directory).
+ - As a consequence of the compression support, GIO depends on zlib now.
+
+* GObject:
+ - G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE_DYNAMIC: a convenience macro for adding
+ interfaces to dynamic types.
+
+* GModule:
+ - The -pthread flag has been added to all gmodule .pc files, because
+ it is not generally permissible to load modules that are linked
+ against libpthread if the program has not been compiled with threading
+ support.
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+ 601637 GUnixFDMessage should contain a GUnixFDList

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.18.1 to GLib 2.19.0
+===================================================
+
+* Rewrite GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing instead
+ of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory fragmentation
+ significantly, while being slightly faster due to better locality and
+ no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes. Benchmarks suggest it
+ also uses less memory overall.

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.14.x to GLib 2.15.0
+===================================================
+
+Major new features:
+
+ * GIO: a VFS API, designed to replace GnomeVFS. The GIO implementation
+ in GLib has support for local filesystems. The new, separate gvfs
+ module contains various backend implementations (cifs, ftp, sftp,
+ http, ...)
+
+ * GChecksum: provides various hash algorithms, such as MD5, SHA-1
+ and SHA-256
+
+ * GTest: a test framework
+
+Smaller additions:
+
+ * GHash:
+ - GHash has iterators, as an alternative to g_hash_table_foreach
+
+ * GMarkup:
+ - g_markup_parse_context_get_element_stack: New function to
+ get the stack of open elements
+ - G_MARKUP_PREFIX_ERROR_POSITION: New flag to improve error
+ reporting
+ - g_markup_collect_attributes: Convenience function for handling
+ attributes
+
+* GKeyFile:
+ - Functions that take a GError now return a boolean to indicate
+ success, instead of void
+ - Various performance improvements
+
+* GAsyncQueue:
+ - g_async_queue_new_full: new function that allows to specify
+ a free function for leftover elements
+
+* GError:
+ - g_prefix_error and g_propagate_prefixed_error: New functions
+ to ease error propagation
+
+* Internationalization:
+ - C_: A new 2-argument variant of the Q_() macro
+ - Use native character set conversion API on Windows
+
+* GLib builds with automake 1.10
