Hello Stephan.

Yes, the code is still relevant and working. We use it in Fedora, for
example.

I see.  There is two minor issues I have with it:

1 The gconf backend provides data for a non-existent configuration entry /org.openoffice.Office.Common/Misc/DisableUICustomization. The old configmgr implementation probably just ignores it. Can somebody confirm that this specific item is indeed dead code?

2 The gconf backend provides data for configuration set member properties /org.openoffice.Setup/Office/Factories/com.sun.star.XXX.XXXDocument/ooSetupFactoryDefaultFilter, for XXX in Presentation, Spreadsheet, Text. Strictly speaking, this is problematic if some of those components are not installed (like an OOo installation where Impress has deliberately not been installed). The old configmgr implementation probably just ignores those items in such a case. I will need to see how to address that with the new configmgr implementation (see <http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Performance/Configuration#Platform_Backends> for the way I intend to modify those platform backends).
