I started with the migration from GConf to GSettings/DConf, but I got some problems. I've asked desktop-devel-list for help, and Mr. Crha gave me some advice. I'm still working on that.
Before I find the best way to do that, I've done some trivial works to make EAS newer. These works should be continued regardless of the finish of this project.

Code Version Control Problem
Code version control using Git or SVN seems like too trivial to some small project, but today's experience taught me a lesson.
We, two classmates and me, are developing a small and simple distributed in-memory key-value storage system (like a system called piccolo developed by Professor Jinyang Li's team in New York University) these days. One of them had constructed the basic framework several days before, and we have been adding new functions based on his work. We did our version control work by simply modifying the old code, since we thought it's just a demo system and should not be hard to maintain. But the truth is that coding is easy, but merging our work really drives us crazy. We have to modify our new code manually to make it adapted to others changes. I have to admit that this kind of version control deprives all of my passion for coding something.
Today I learned that even if you are developing a really small project, wise version control is indispensable. A beard well lathered is half shaved, though.

Summary of work from June 23rd to July 6th
I've been working though my final exams in the last two weeks. Hope I can get some good scores.
About our project, I've passed the midterm evaluation. Since the time left is not very casual, I will focus on this after the last exam and make EAS better.
By the way, I may participate the GUADEC 2015 if I can get the visa. Hope to have a nice experience with the people there.
