+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

+
+* The memory corruption warning from the slice allocator that
+ occurred when threads were initialized after the slice allocator

+=================================================
+
+* Memory management:

+
+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.9.0 to GLib 2.9.1
+=================================================
+
+* Memory management
+ - The slice allocator is implemented [Tim Janik]
+ - g_slice_free_chain() has been renamed to
+ g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() [Tim, Behdad Esfahbod]
+ - Mem chunks are deprecated [Matthias Clasen]
+
+* Data structures
+ - Hash tables are refcounted, and have a boxed type [Tim]
+
+* Thread support
+ - Support for Solaris threads has been removed
+ [Sebastian Wilhelmi, Andrew Paprocki]
+ - g_async_queue_sort(), g_async_queue_push_sorted() have
+ been added to allow GAsyncQueue to be used as a priority
+ queue, together with the corresponding _unlocked
+ variants [Martyn Russell]
+
+* GObject:
+ - The concept of a floating initial reference has been
+ moved from GtkObject to GObject [Tim]
+
+* Win32 changes:
+ - Make g_rename() replace existing files [Tor Lillqvist]
+
+* Misc new API:
+ - G_GUINT64_CONSTANT macro to define guint64
+ constants [Andrew Paprocki]
+ - G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT macro to instruct the
+ compiler to emit a warning if the value returned
+ by a function is ignored. [Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson]
+ - GList and GSList now have sort functions which take an
+ extra user data argument [Martyn Russell]
+ - g_param_spec_ref_sink() has been added for consistency [Tim]
+
+* $LOGNAME is respected when determining user data. [Laszlo Peter]
+
+* Other changes and bug fixes [Tim, Matthias, Behdad,
+ Christian Persch, Benedikt Meurer, Andrew Paprocki,
+ Kazuki Iwamoto, Alexis S. L. Carvalho, Stanislav Brabec,
+ Andreas Schwab, Kalle Vahlman]
+
+* Documentation
+ - Deprecation warnings carry version information [Matthias]
+ - The slice allocator has been documented [Matthias, Tim]
+ - Other improvements [Morten Welinder]
+
+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.8.x to GLib 2.9.0
+=================================================
+* Unicode support:
+ - The Unicode tables have been updated to Unicode 4.1,
+ adding several new values to the GUnicodeBreakType
+ enumeration. This breaks Pango <= 1.10
+ [Behdad Esfahbod]
+ - The various Unicode character predicate functions
+ (g_unichar_isalpha, g_unichar_isdigit,...) have
+ been optimized
+ [Behdad]
+ - g_utf8_pointer_to_offset, g_utf8_offset_to_pointer:
+ These functions handle negative offsets now, and
+ going backwards in g_utf8_offset_to_pointer uses
+ "stutter stepping".
+ [Larry Ewing, Matthias Clasen]
+
+* Memory management:
+ - Mem chunks are no longer used internally in GLib and
+ GObject. GMemChunk will be deprecated in GLib 2.10
+ - All APIs based on GAllocator (g_list_push/pop_allocator,
+ and similar push/pop_allocator functions for other
+ data structures) have been deprecated, since they
+ never worked as intended.
+ - The g_slice_* functions have been added as a
+ new API for fast allocation of small memory blocks.
+ The implementation in GLib 2.9.0 is just a simple
+ wrapper around malloc. GLib 2.10 will have an
+ efficient and scalable implementation.
+ [Tim Janik, Matthias]
+
+* Pattern matching:
+ - g_pattern_match has been optimized to avoid
+ unnecessary recursion.
+ [Tim, Matthias]
+
+* g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string:
+ - New functions to intern strings. These are now used
+ by GObject to avoid duplicating static strings
+ [Matthias]
+
+* g_thread_foreach:
+ - New function to iterate over all GThreads
+ [Tim, Matthias]
+
+* g_date_set_time_t, g_date_set_time_val:
+ - New functions to set a GDate from a time_t or
+ GTimeVal value. g_date_set_time has been deprecated
+ in favor of these.
+ [Roger Leigh]
+
+* g_snprintf and g_vsnprintf:
+ - These functions are no longer declared in gprintf.h,
+ since they are in glib.h
+ [Matthias]
+
