- many applications now use the new gio library instead of gnome-vfs, leading to important performance improvements
- A handful of packages (namely nautilus, gnome-panel and libgnome) will be shipped in their 2.20 version, as we felt gvfs was not stable and featured enough for a stable Debian release. We include our patched, rock-solid version of gnome-vfs instead, even though it means less performance.
