[Sugar-devel] From GConf to GSettings

As GConf is deprecated, it should be replaced by GSettings.

I've made a patch that will change most of the code to use GSettings.
(I'm not sure how to include the link, as it will cause the mail to be
sent to the spam folder).

Moving to GSettings is not something easy. The biggest issue is the
compatibility of the activities.
How should it be handled?
I'm not sure how many activities use GConf. I was able to find only 3:
read and write (using sugar's speech settings), and browse. But I'm
sure there are more activities.

Regards,
