+The mission control library reads files on disk to determine available
+connection managers, and the protocols they support, listed as activatable
+service names of the form:
+ org.freedesktop.ipcf.connectionmanager.{manager specific identifier}
+
+Once activated, the connection manager provides an object implementing the
+interface:
+ org.freedesktop.ipcf.connectionmanager
+Named:
+ /org/freedesktop/ipcf/connectionmanager/{manager id}
+Which provides methods to query available protocols, and create a connection.
+
+When a connection is created, the manager appears as a service of the form:
+ org.freedesktop.ipcf.connection.{protocol}.{protocol specific account identifier}
+A manager which is only capable of managing a single connection would then
+deregister its org.freedesktop.ipcf.connectionmanager.* identifier, causing
+another instance to be activated when another connection is required.
+
+The connection service provides an object implementing the interface:
+ org.freedesktop.ipcf.connection
+Named:
+ /org/freedesktop/ipcf/connection/{protocol}/{account id}
+Which provides methods to query the channels that the connection currently
+has open, create channels, query available contacts, add/remove contacts,
+disconnect, etc, and emits signals for changes in these entities.
