+Notes about GLib 2.30
+=====================
+
+* GObject includes a generic marshaller, g_cclosure_marshal_generic.
+ To use it, simply specify NULL as the marshaller in g_signal_new().
+ The generic marshaller is implemented with libffi, and consequently
+ GObject depends on libffi now.
+
+Notes about GLib 2.28
+=====================
+
+* The GApplication API has changed compared to the version that was
+ included in the 2.25 development snapshots. Existing users will need
+ adjustments.
+
+Notes about GLib 2.26
+=====================
+
+* Nothing noteworthy.
+
+Notes about GLib 2.24
+=====================
+
+* It is now allowed to call g_thread_init(NULL) multiple times, and
+ to call glib functions before g_thread_init(NULL) is called
+ (although the later is mainly a change in docs as this worked before
+ too). See the GThread reference documentation for the details.
+
+* GObject now links to GThread and threads are enabled automatically
+ when g_type_init() is called.
+
+* GObject no longer allows to call g_object_set() on construct-only properties
+ while an object is being initialized. If this behavior is needed, setting a
+ custom constructor that just chains up will re-enable this functionality.
+
+* GMappedFile on an empty file now returns NULL for the contents instead of
+ returning an empty string. The documentation specifically states that code
+ may not rely on nul-termination here so any breakage caused by this change
+ is a bug in application code.
+
+Notes about GLib 2.22
+=====================
+
+* Repeated calls to g_simple_async_result_set_op_res_gpointer used
+ to leak the data. This has been fixed to always call the provided
+ destroy notify.

Notes about GLib 2.20
=====================
-^ The functions for launching applications (e.g. g_app_info_launch() +
+* The functions for launching applications (e.g. g_app_info_launch() +
friends) now passes a FUSE file:// URI if possible (requires gvfs
with the FUSE daemon to be running and operational). With gvfs 2.26,
FUSE file:// URIs will be mapped back to gio URIs in the GFile
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
