+CompizConfig is an alternative configuration system for
+compiz that provides the following features:
+- Automatic plugin list generation.
+- Import/Export of the current configuration.
+- Configuration profiles.
+- Parsing of Compiz metadata files to provide an easy to use API
+ for configuration managers.
+- Conflict handling for plugins and actions.
+- Support for different configuration storage backends.
+- Desktop environment integration. If a backend provides desktop
+ environment integration, then Compiz will share the keybindings
+ and settings with the default desktop environment window manager
+ like metacity or kwin.
+- Its own Compiz configuration plugin "ccp" to provide all features
+ of libcompizconfig with compiz.
