This is your VFS...

... and this is your VFS on Freedesktop. I'm very pleased to see that, after months of the idea kicking around xdg-list, Sean Middleditch has taken it one step forward and launched the D-VFS project. The general goal is to kick ass and take names. I think there's a universal desktop VFS library thing in there too, but it's mostly about kicking ass. There's no code yet, but for a project that's only officially two days old it's incredibly well put together. KDE big-wig and xdg-list regular Waldo Bastian quickly weighed in very positively on Sean's ideas for D-VFS.

In other Freedesktop news, the common xpdf fork is on its way. Yay for shared infrastructure!
