So time has come and we're working on that release list. In the last
days I've being working on some show stopper stuff like file
management and I plan to get ride of most items by March.

I'd like some help to finish the list, mostly on the usability front.
You don't need to really know how to code, I can do code, but I need
you to go review menus and dialogs, specially layout and phrasing, to
make them simpler and shorter. Please open new wiki pages and attach
mockups there, describe your ideas, if  we find them reasonable we'll
do the code.   Please see these items:

Reorganize, Layout and Visual Changes:
  *  fix many labels and widgets to be shorter/simpler (save space)
and more obvious.
  * clean up as many menus as possible (labels, ordering, layout).
simplify and re-organise.

Some items in the list are very demanding, like finish converting
ecore data types to eina, but Cedric has some pending patches in
queue. If people can help with these "easy" items, then we can work on
more complex stuff and get E17 released soon, making everybody happy,
with ready to use packages in most distros :-)
