+<p>
+        Converting individual applications and their settings from GConf to
+        GSettings can be done at will. But desktop-wide settings like font or
+        theme settings often have consumers in multiple modules. Therefore,
+        some consideration has to go into making sure that all users of a setting
+        are converted to GSettings at the same time or that the program
+        responsible for configuring that setting continues to update the value in
+        both places.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        It is always a good idea to have a look at how others have handled
+        similar problems before.  An examplaric conversion can be found e.g.
+        in the <a class="ulink" href="http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-utils/log/?h=gsettings-tutorial" target="_top">gsettings-tutorial</a> branch of gnome-utils.

+<p>
+        Conceptually, GConf and GSettings are fairly similar. Both
+        have a concept of pluggable backends. Both keep information
+        about keys and their types in schemas. Both have a concept of
+        mandatory values, which lets you implement lock-down.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        There are some differences in the approach to schemas. GConf
+        installs the schemas into the database and has API to handle
+        schema information (<code class="function">gconf_client_get_default_from_schema()</code>,
+        <code class="function">gconf_value_get_schema()</code>, etc). GSettings on the other hand
+        assumes that an application knows its own schemas, and does
+        not provide API to handle schema information at runtime.
+        GSettings is also more strict about requiring a schema whenever
+        you want to read or write a key. To deal with more free-form
+        information that would appear in schema-less entries in GConf,
+        GSettings allows for schemas to be 'relocatable'.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        One difference in the way applications interact with their
+        settings is that with GConf you interact with a tree of
+        settings (ie the keys you pass to functions when reading
+        or writing values are actually paths with the actual name
+        of the key as the last element. With GSettings, you create
+        a GSettings object which has an implicit prefix that determines
+        where the settings get stored in the global tree of settings,
+        but the keys you pass when reading or writing values are just
+        the key names, not the full path.

+        GConfBridge was a third-party library that used GConf to bind an object property
+        to a particular configuration key. GSettings offers this service itself.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        There is a pattern that is sometimes used for GConf, where a setting can have
+        explicit 'value A', explicit 'value B' or 'use the system default'. With GConf,
+        'use the system default' is sometimes implemented by unsetting the user value.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        This is not possible in GSettings, since it does not have API to determine if a value
+        is the default and does not let you unset values. The recommended way (and much
+        clearer) way in which this can be implemented in GSettings is to have a separate
+        'use-system-default' boolean setting.

+        GConf has a a concept of a set of changes which can be applied or reverted
+        at once: <span class="type">GConfChangeSet</span> (GConf doesn't actually apply changes atomically,
+        which is one of its shortcomings).
+      </p>
+<p>
+        Instead of a separate object to represent a change set, GSettings has a
+        'delayed-apply' mode, which can be turned on for a GSettings object by
+        calling <a class="link" href="GSettings.html#g-settings-delay" title="g_settings_delay ()"><code class="function">g_settings_delay()</code></a>. In this mode, changes done to the GSettings
+        object are not applied - they are still visible when calling <a class="link" href="GSettings.html#g-settings-get" title="g_settings_get ()"><code class="function">g_settings_get()</code></a>
+        <span class="emphasis"><em>on the same object</em></span>, but not to other GSettings instances
+        or even other processes.
+      </p>
+<p>
+        To apply the pending changes all at once (GSettings <span class="emphasis"><em>does</em></span>
+        atomicity here), call <a class="link" href="GSettings.html#g-settings-apply" title="g_settings_apply ()"><code class="function">g_settings_apply()</code></a>. To revert the pending changes,
+        call <a class="link" href="GSettings.html#g-settings-revert" title="g_settings_revert ()"><code class="function">g_settings_revert()</code></a> or just drop the reference to the <a class="link" href="GSettings.html" title="GSettings"><span class="type">GSettings</span></a> object.
