+\section{Overview}
+The client model in BCFG2 remains much the same as the client model in
+BCFG1. This assumptions in place are as follows:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item{BCFG is the source of all client configuration.}
+\item{Skew from the configuration determined by BCFG is defined to be
+    incorrect.} 
+\item{Local state isn't trusted. All client metadata is determined on
+    the server side.}
+\end{itemize}
+
+The client configuration consists of a complete software inventory,
+extra filesystem modifications, and configuration file changes. The
+client configuration will be augmented in BCFG2 to also include state
+information about process profiles and normal usage.
