This release is being made as an extra testing release
before GLib-2.4.0, which was previously scheduled for 
March 15, but has been delayed one week until March 15.
Testing is most appreciated.

Changes since 2.3.5 consist mostly of bug fixes.

Notes:

 * This is an unstable development release. While it has had
   fairly extensive testing, there are likely bugs
   remaining to be found. This release should not be used
   in production.

 * Installing this version will overwrite your existing
   copy of GLib-2.2. If you have problems, you'll need
   to reinstall GLib-2.2.4.

 * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
   
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.

More information about GLib is available at:

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can
be found at:
