They was not easy to get rid of because they use dynamic keys. Just a couple of places but migration will not be trivial. When that's done we can also drop the gconf schemas.<br>

<br></div>We could add an helper to toolkit to setup the schema. Hopefully it would be possible to also integrate this with the gsettings override mechanism which would allow deployments to provide different defaults.<br>
<br></div>This is more complex that just using ConfigParser or json of course.<br><br>I don't have a strong feeling about what direction we should take.

</div></div>They are all forks: different variants of Turtle. I can work around<br>
gconf for Turtle easily enough, but as I mentioned earlier, not sure<br>
what to do the webservices. They use gconf to store server-specific<br>
data.<br>
