This is the second development release leading up to GLib-2.8.
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 2.6. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GLib 2.6.5.
* GLib 2.8 will be source and binary compatible with the GLib 2.6.x series; however, the new API additions in GLib 2.7.0 are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibities between this release and the final 2.8 release.
* Remaining issues for GLib 2.8 can be found with the following bugzilla query:

+API+Freezetarget_milestone=2.8
+Freezebug_status=NEWbug_status=UNCONFIRMEDbug_status=ASSIGNEDbug_status=REOPENED
* Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
