-General Information
-===================
-
-This is GLib version 2.5.0. GLib is the low-level core
-library that forms the basis for projects such as GTK+ and GNOME. It
-provides data structure handling for C, portability wrappers, and
-interfaces for such runtime functionality as an event loop, threads,
-dynamic loading, and an object system.

-Notes about GLib-2.4.0
-======================
-
-* GObject now enforces CONSTRUCT_ONLY properties; due to an oversight
- in previous versions, it was possible to set CONSTRUCT_ONLY properties
- after construct time.
-
-* The child watch functionality tends to reveal a bug in many
- thread implementations (in particular the older LinuxThreads implementation
- on Linux) where it's not possible to call waitpid() for a child
- created in a different thread. For this reason, for maximum portability,
- you should structure your code to fork all child processes that you want
- to wait for from the main thread.
-
-* A problem was recently discovered with g_signal_connect_object();
- it doesn't actually disconnect the signal handler once the object being
- connected to dies, just disables it. See the API docs for the function
- for further details and the correct workaround that will continue to
- work with future versions of GLib.
-
-How to report bugs
-==================
-
-Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.
-(http://bugzilla.gnome.org, product glib.) You will need
-to create an account for yourself.
-
-In the bug report please include:
-
-* Information about your system. For instance:
-
- - What operating system and version
- - For Linux, what version of the C library
-
- And anything else you think is relevant.
-
-* How to reproduce the bug.
-
- If you can reproduce it with the testgtk program that is built
- in the gtk/ subdirectory, that will be most convenient. Otherwise,
- please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior.
- As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece
- of software that can be downloaded.
-
-* If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out
- when the crash occured.
-
-* Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but
- is not necessary.
-
-Patches
-=======
-
-Patches should also be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org. If the
-patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment
-to that bug report.
-
-Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch,
-and attach the patch to that bug report.
-
-Bug reports containing patches should include the PATCH keyword
-in their keyword fields. If the patch adds to or changes the GLib
-programming interface, the API keyword should also be included.
-
-Patches should be in unified diff form. (The -u option to GNU
-diff.)
