* The XCB backend is disabled by default during the
configuration. To enable it, add --enable-ecore-x-xcb. See the
messages that configure displays when it finishes.
* The way XCB is detected, and used in src/lib/ecore_x/Makefile.am
should be improved
* Any program that uses ecore_evas does not need to be modified.
Any program that uses ecore_x may need some changes. That is,
adding some functions (_prefetch and _fetch ones). No other
change is needed. See the documention of any _get functions, as
these are the ones that need those functions.
* There are some missing parts, especially everything that involves
the keyboard, as porting Xlib functions related to strings (utf8
stuff, XKeysymToString, etc...) is an horror. So keyboard events
are not working yet.
* I tried to write as much documentation as I could. But there is
certainly some missing doc here and there.
there are certainly other things that I have forgotten.
Improvements of that backend:
* the creation of an ecore_evas is faster. Especially when done over
an ssh connection (on my computer, 7-10s with Xlib, 1.5s with XCB,
over an ssh)
* A Window Manager should be more responsive. But it's not tomorrow
that e17 will use it :)
Have fun !

Re-apply the previously reverted patch and add (I think) the correct
fix for ecore-config. I haven't tested this extensively, but edje
builds okay with it, so hopefully it's right.

Lots of work on ecore_dbus
Hilights:
- get the socket address for system/session/startup busses from the environment
- can request/release a bus name
- receive method calls (we need to add a way to register callbacks for specific methods)
- send signals and method replies (untested)
*** API BREAKAGE ***
ecore_dbus_message_new_method_call() - the 'destination' param has moved to after the 'method' param to keep things consistent with newly supported message types and the param ordering in the spec.

because we have to check the code inside, not only the file, maybe a
test app will be usefull but i dont know much of autotools.
+ make ecore_evas_fb dependant to ecore_fb
+ on ecore_fb_private.h add a hack in case the linux headers are broken
(2.6.15 - 2.6.17), thanks blak. for other kernels i still need more
info to acutally fix the issues.

the mailing list. It's not ready yet. It needs documentation, EFL
conformant naming, and a good whipping into shape by indent. The ecore
integration needs a reveiw, see if I got that right.
Consider this a preview, it's mostly there, just needs some tweking.
