Notes: * This is unstable development release. 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 2.16. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GLib 2.16. * GLib 2.18 will be source and binary compatible with the GLib 2.16 series. The new API additions in GLib 2.17 are finalized at this point. Except for unforeseen last-minute problems, there should be no more API changes between this release and the final 2.18 release. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
