 This is the GNOME Virtual File System.
 
-Embryonic is not the word.  This code will probably delete all

-house, and guarantee you an IRS audit every year for the rest of
-your life.
+GnomeVFS is a filesystem abstraction library allowing applications
+plugable transparent access to a variety of "real" filesystems, from
+WebDAV to digital cameras, to the local filesystem. It also contains a
+number of other convenient file utilities such as a comphrehensive MIME
+database / Application registry, and a copy engine. Use of GnomeVFS
+ensures that an application or component will be usable by Nautilus or
+other GnomeVFS applications for handling the display of data from
+various URIs, as well.
+
+This is the GnomeVFS for the GNOME 2 architecture.
