We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.

Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.

No manual changes, just ran commands:

    F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
    sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*-  *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }'     -i "${F[@]}"
    sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"

Check remaining lines with:

    git grep -e '-\*-'

The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.

Update the raw D-Bus python examples to use newer APIs where
appropriate (and split the add-connection example into 1.0-only and
0.9-compatible versions). Update the gi-based python examples for the
various API changes since they were last updated.

Also add a comment to the ruby add-connection example pointing out
that it's still using the old settings APIs.

Various GNOME services moved around so links need updating.
