 # libxcb-image
 
+The xcb-util module provides a number of libraries which sit on top of libxcb, the core X protocol library, and some of the extension libraries.
+These experimental libraries provide convenience functions and interfaces which make the raw X protocol more usable.
+Some of the libraries also provide client-side code which is not strictly part of the X protocol but which have traditionally been provided by Xlib.
+
+These libraries are currently included, roughly ordered by maturity:
+* image: Port of Xlib's XImage and XShmImage functions.
