It is designed to be low-overhead; messages 1.10 +are sent using a binary protocol, not using XML. D-Bus also supports a method 1.11 +call mapping for its messages, but it is not required; this makes using the 1.12 +system quite simple. 1.13 + 1.14 +It comes with several bindings, including GLib, Python, Qt and Java.
