Browse Source 
Let people know that for Visual Studio builds GLib is a hard requirement,
and let the people also know that SDL-2.x is now used for builds supporting
the SDL winsys.  Also let people know that current situation regarding
building and linking Cogl applications with the SDL winsys built in.
