Gvfs consists of two parts:
* GIO, which is a new shared library that is part of GLib and provides the API for `gvfs`
- * Gvfs itself, which is a new package containing backends for various file system types and protocols such as sftp, dav, smb, obexftp.
+ * Gvfs itself, a package that contains backends for the various file system types and protocols
The Gvfs system runs a single master daemon, `gvfsd`, that keeps track of the current `gvfs` mounts. Most mounts are run in a separate daemon process. Clients talk to the mounts with a combination of DBus calls (on the session bus and using peer-to-peer DBus) and a custom protocol for file contents.
