While it has had a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be used in production. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GLib 2.12. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GLib 2.12. * GLib 2.14 will be source and binary compatible with the GLib 2.12 series. The new API additions in GLib are finalized at this point. We expect the API of GLib 2.14 to be identical to GLib 2.13.7. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
