So efreet and ecore_desktop can coexist for sometime and it is much easier to do the transition (not only e17 uses ecore_desktop). And when sometime ecore gets split into several package, you can still use the efreet namespace and you don't have to rename all the function in your applications and libraries. just my 2 cents Peter - Take Surveys.

The Ibar would remain .order files. So, we need to replace the menu generation code with efreet code. We need to port the icon editor over to using efreet (and add in a bit of editing stuff to efreet I believe). We also, I guess, need to move efreet into ecore. Probably into ecore_desktop as #if NEW_CODE blocks so we can keep the old stuff. Not sure on that one tho. If we integrate into ecore we need to make sure we bring the menu test suite code into the bin directory. This is the code that let's us run efreet against the menu spec tests.
