+ <longdescription>
+ GIO is striving to provide a modern, easy-to-use VFS API that sits at the right level in the library stack.
+ The goal is to overcome the shortcomings of GnomeVFS and provide an API that is
+ so good that developers prefer it over raw POSIX calls.
+ Among other things that means using GObject.
+ It also means not cloning the POSIX API, but providing higher-level, document-centric interfaces.
