i've been thinking about this. here is my take: eo should merge into the efl
tree. this means it first needs to go into existing efl trees. so for evas
that means - put it in. for stuff beyond evas unless u are fast u may have to
port your changes to the new efl tree no matter what. at LEAST this is easy if
u take your patches and split them up PER file and then apply those diffs per
file - u wont get any mismerge problems u wouldn't get anyway as a result of
doing work offline for a long time. :)
