A cursory examination of com.netscape.cmscore.base.SimpleProperties cf. java.util.Properties reveals only two differences: SimpleProperties' hashCode() and equals() methods take the `defaults' into account, whereas Properties inherits this methods from Java.util.HashTable. The only place SimpleProperties is used is in SourceConfigStore (which extends it), and the only place SourceConfigStore is used is in PropConfigStore (protected SourceConfigStore mSource). Neither PropConfigStore nor its subclasses invoke mSource.equals() or .hashCode() so it seems - from this brief examination and without the knowledge of history - it seems that we should be able to remove SimpleProperties and use Properties instead.
