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.

GLib 2.28 is a stable release adding an incremental improvement
in functionality over GLib 2.26 while maintaining binary and
source compatibility.

Major new features include:

* GSettings:
 - The schema compiler will now skip over broken .xml schemas
 - Endianness problems have been fixed
 - Better support for ranges

* The gsettings utility
 - Supports ranges too
 - Gained a list-recursively command
 - Has completion support for enumeration values

* GApplication has been rewritten; see the API docs for details
 and examples. The action support is not complete yet.

* GAppInfo:
 - GIO now uses x-scheme-handler mimetypes when looking for default
  applications. The gio-desktop-app-info-lookup extension point is
  no longer used.
 - The g_desktop_app_info_launch_* functions now emit a DBus signal
  when an application is launched.

* GMain:
 - The mainloop has gained 'dispatch to context' functionality,
  which can replace manually created idle sources in many cases.
 - GLib is now linked against librt and uses monotonic time for
  timeouts and for GTimer.

* The Unicode support has been updated for Unicode 6.0.

* The included PCRE has been updated to 8.12.

For more details and lists of fixed bugs, see the
announcements of the 2.27.x development releases:
