+Notes about GLib 2.32
+=====================
+
+* It is no longer necessary to use g_thread_init() or to link against
+  libgthread.  libglib is now always thread-enabled.  Custom thread
+  system implementations are no longer supported (including errorcheck
+  mutexes).
+
+* The thread and synchronisation APIs have been updated.
+  GMutex and GCond can be statically allocated without explicit
+  initialisation, as can new types GRWLock and GRecMutex.  The
+  GStatic_______ variants of these types have been deprecated.  GPrivate
+  can also be statically allocated and has a nicer API (deprecating
+  GStaticPrivate).  Finally, g_thread_create() has been replaced with a
+  substantially simplified g_thread_new().
+
+* The g_once_init_enter()/_leave() functions have been replaced with
+  macros that allow for a pointer to any gsize-sized object, not just a
+  gsize*.  The assertions to ensure that a pointer to a correctly-sized
+  object is being used will not work with generic pointers (ie: (void*)
+  and (gpointer) casts) which would have worked with the old version.
+
+* It is now mandatory to include glib.h instead of individual headers.
+
+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.
