+Notes about GLib 2.36
+=====================
+
+* It is no longer necessary to call g_type_init(). If you are
+ loading GLib as a dynamic module, you should be careful to avoid
+ unloading it, then subsequently loading it again. This never
+ really worked before, but it is now explicitly undefined behavior.
+ Note that if g_type_init() was the only explicit use of a GObject
+ API and you are using linker flags such as --no-add-needed, then
+ you may have to artificially use some GObject call to keep the
+ linker from optimizing away -lgobject. We recommend to use
+ g_type_ensure (G_TYPE_OBJECT) for this purpose.
+
+* This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir()
+ function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME
+ environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password.
+ As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the
+ value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback.
+
+* The 'flowinfo' and 'scope_id' fields of GInetSocketAddress
+ (introduced in GLib 2.32) have been fixed to be in host byte order
+ rather than network byte order. This is an incompatible change, but
+ the previous behavior was clearly broken, so it seems unlikely that
+ anyone was using it.
+
+Notes about GLib 2.34
+=====================
+
+* GIO now looks for thumbnails in XDG_CACHE_HOME, following a
+ recent alignment of the thumbnail spec with the basedir spec.
+
+* The default values for GThreadPools max_unused_threads and
+ max_idle_time settings have been changed to 2 and 15*1000,
+ respectively.
