Means that you can keep a working desktop during that time.<p/>Do the same was KDE did, work porting to GNOME 3 and switch everything correctly and keep the stable GNOME 2 series during that time so people can continue using something that more or less works.

For Evolution, there is a patch to make it work with DBUS, and all CORBA use is internal to the app and the wrapper libraries. For the panel, it is also internal.
