+ <p>A D-Bus tube is an ordered reliable transport, for transporting D-Bus
+ traffic.</p>
+
+ <p>For each D-Bus tube, the connection manager listens on a D-Bus
+ server address, as detailed in the D-Bus specification. On this
+ address, it emulates a bus upon which each tube participant appears
+ as an endpoint.</p>
+
+ <p>The objects and interfaces which are expected to exist on the
+ emulated bus depend on the well-known name; typically, either the
+ participant who initiated the tube is expected to export the same
+ objects/interfaces that would be exported by a service of that name
+ on a bus, or all participants are expected to export those
+ objects/interfaces.</p>
+
+ <p>In a multi-user context (Handle_Type_Room) the tube behaves
+ like the D-Bus bus daemon, so participants can send each other
+ private messages, or can send broadcast messages which are
+ received by everyone in the tube (including themselves).
+ Each participant has a D-Bus unique name; connection managers
+ must prevent participants from sending messages with the wrong
+ sender unique name, and should attempt to avoid participants
+ receiving messages not intended for them.</p>
+
+ <p>In a 1-1 context (Handle_Type_Contact) the tube behaves like
+ a peer-to-peer D-Bus connection - arbitrary D-Bus messages with
+ any sender and/or destination can be sent by each participant,
+ and each participant receives all messages sent by the other
+ participant.</p>
