+
+  <description xml:lang="en">GVfs is a userspace virtual filesystem designed to work with the I/O 
abstraction of GIO (a library availible in GLib >= 2.15.1). It installs several modules that are 
automatically used by applications using the APIs of libgio. There is also FUSE support that allows 
applications not using GIO to access the GVfs filesystems.
+
+The GVfs model differs from e.g. GnomeVFS in that filesystems must be mounted before they are used. There is 
a master daemon (gvfsd) that handles coordinating mounts, and then each mount is (typically) in its own 
daemon process (although mounts can share daemon process).
+
+GVfs comes with a set of backends, including trash support, SFTP, SMB, HTTP, DAV, and others.
+
+GVfs also contains modules for GIO that implement volume monitors and the GNOME URI scheme handler 
configuration.
+
+There is a set of command line programs starting with "gvfs-" that lets you run commands (like cat, ls, 
stat, etc) on files in the GVfs mounts.</description>
