+POSIX Overlay Filesystem (posixovl)
+
+A FUSE (filesystem in userspace) filesystem that provides POSIX functionality -
+UNIX-style permissions, ownership, special files - for filesystems that do not
+have such, e.g. vfat. It is a modern equivalent of the UMSDOS fs.
+
+It provides a filesystem view that supports various POSIX operations while using
+an otherwise incapable lower filesystem. Filesystems of various degrees of
+POSIXness can be utilitzed. VFAT is a common  denominator  when it comes to
+cross-compatibility, though NTFS — its features are unused in Linux — would be
+another possibility. Secondly, potent native POSIX-style filesystems can also
+be used, though the actual use of doing that remains to be discovered.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
