About GLib
==========

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.

News
====

* 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
