I'm generally with you on the capitalisation issues (and the full stop
on the end of the first paragraph), but in fact "re-unification" is
more likely as a synonym for "re-merger".  I'd just wonder about the
hyphen, and whether it's trying to say "the re-unification of the
Beryl project *with* the community around the Compiz Window Manager."

I'd also eliminate "allowing use", just because I see it too often,
and I'm thoroughly unconvinced by its claims of "unrivalled
usefulness" - I'd let it get away with "usability".

My suggestion:

 Description: Compiz Fusion configuration system - GConf backend
  Compiz Fusion is the result of the reunification of the Beryl project
  with the community around the Compiz Window Manager. It seeks to provide
  an easy and fun-to-use windowing environment, taking advantage of the
  graphics hardware to provide impressive effects, amazing speed, and
  unrivalled usability.
  .
  This package provides the GConf configuration back-end for the
  Compiz Fusion plug-in system.
