glibmm 2.20.0 is the first release in the new stable 2.20 series

* ABOUT glibmm *

  glibmm is a C++ API for glib and gio.  It is useful on its own
  and is a dependency of gtkmm, the C++ API for GTK+.

  glibmm 2.20 wraps new API in glib 2.20, including the gio library,
  and is API/ABI-compatibile with older versions of glibmm back to
  version 2.4. It is a version of the glibmm-2.4 API.
