Krzysztof, it would be good if you could go through the wiki page and add gio as a tracked item, so we can see who we'd be leaving behind.
I could use a link to the relevant page because I'm not 100% sure what you want me to do.

Also a few questions had come up about its use in the past, but it really wasn't bringing in more that we needed off-hand. It's more like the java nio packages and other higher level functions.
I read the description of Java nio here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/nio/package-summary.html and it doesn't look like it's similar to GIO. GIO is also a filesystem abstraction library and includes transparent support for many protocols like FTP, SFTP, OBEX, SMB, etc. through the gvfs daemon. nio seems more like buffer abstraction.
