+======================
+Architecture in Detail
+======================
+
+Bcfg2 is based on a client-server architecture. The client is
+responsible for interpreting (but not processing) the configuration
+served by the server. This configuration is literal, so no local
+process is required. After completion of the configuration process,
+the client uploads a set of statistics to the server. This section
+will describe the goals and then the architecture motivated by it.
