+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.6 to 2.31.8
+==============================================
+
+* GObject:
+ - The type checks for overriding properties have been loosened.
+ In particular, it is now possible to add the CONSTRUCT flag
+ to an overridden property
+ - GWeakRef is a new API for weak references; unlike g_object_weak_ref
+ and g_object_add_weak_pointer, it is thread-safe.
+
+* GHashTable has grown new convenience api for use as a set:
+ g_hash_table_add, g_hash_table_contains
+
+* GSocketConnection has gained API for managing connection status
+

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.4 to 2.31.6
+==============================================
+
+* GApplication no longer has APIs for setting menus. Those have been
+ moved to GtkApplication.
+
+* the GActionGroup import/export functionality has been decoupled from
+ GApplication by the introduction of a new interface for the purpose of
+ handling platform data: GRemoteActionGroup. This allows Gtk to
+ properly deal with platform data (and gdk threads) on window actions.
+
+* lots of documentation improvements
+
+* bug fixes and a huge number of memory leak fixes
+
+* the test suite now passes on ARM and some of the GDBus testcase hangs
+ we've been seeing have been resolved (although others could remain)
+
+* g_bytes_get_data() API changed: now includes 'size' out parameter
+
+* new g_queue_free_full() API similar to g_[s]list_free_full()
+
+* desktop files: use standard "Keywords" now, not "X-GNOME-Keywords"
+
+* gsettings commandline tool now has --schemadir option for schemas not
+ installed in the usual place (ie: as part of plugins)
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+ 643736 GApplication doesn't emit dbus signals on action updates
+ 657433 g_queue_free_full() missing
+ 664699 glib: documentation fixes
+ 665737 acquire/release gdk threads lock on incoming dbus
+ 665879 GBytes: add a size argument to g_bytes_get_data
+ 666113 various leaks in GLib, GIO are visible in the regression tests
+ 666115 various tests leak memory, obscuring real leaks in the library
+ 666145 Doc could be more explicite that g_thread_init calls can be droped
+ 666173 Configure warning - linux/netlink.h usability... no
+ 666296 Race condition in g_thread_xp_get_srwlock
+ 666415 Settings tools should allow specifying a schema directory
+
+* Translations updated:
+ French
+ Spanish
+
+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.2 to 2.31.4
+==============================================
+
+* EXPERIMENTAL: Menu support has been added to GApplication. Menus
+ are exported on the bus, alongside the actions that are already there.
+ There have also been many related improvements to action group
+ functionality.
+
+ These new APIs are subject to changes in the coming releases. In
+ particular, it seems somewhat likely that the APIs for registering
+ menubars may change in order to accommodate windows with different
+ types of menubars.
+
+* GDBusConnection previously directly dispatched destroy notifies when
+ unregistering objects if the current main context was the same context
+ the object was exported on. It now unconditionally dispatches these
+ through an idle on the context.
+
+* Clean up Requires in pc files. Linking against GIO no
+ longer drags in gmodule. This may require dependency
+ fixes here and there.
+
+* Introduce GBytes, a data type for immutable, fixed-size
+ byte sequences. This makes the pre-existing GBuffer
+ API available outside GLib
+
+* GDBusInterfaceSkeleton can now be exported on multiple
+ connections
+
+* Bugs fixed:

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.0 to 2.31.2
+==============================================
+
+* Monotonic time is now properly supported on Windows
+
+* glib-mkenums: fix @ENUMPREFIX@ with /*< underscore_name=... >*/
+
+* EXPERIMENTAL: introduce new GSettingsSchema and GSettingsSchemaSource
+ APIs for the convenience of plugin system authors and those who wish
+ to introspect the contents of schemas. This API may change.
+
+* Improve the performance of GObject property notifies.
+
+* GDBus:
+ - fix a race when unowning a name immediately after owning it
+ - thread safety improvements on GDBusConnection
+ - fixes for exit-on-close functionality
+
+* Deprecations:
+ - add G_SIGNAL_DEPRECATED
+ - don't use G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED masking for functions anymore
+
+* docs
+ - tmpl/ is finally dead for glib
+
+* GIO:
+ - GInetAddressMask: new type for internet address range matching
+ - various GIO file and stream fixes
+ - improvements to attribute and fileinfo handling
+
Overview of changes from GLib 2.29/2.30 to 2.31.0
=================================================
* Add new GValue API to specifically deal in signed chars (in case the
platform defines 'char' as unsigned)
+* some new API to mitigate the problems associated with calling setenv()
+ in a multi-threaded program

time (ie: stop checking for kernel support at runtime).

+ - drop -uninstalled variants
