One important note: When porting an egg, please take some time
to reconsider the names an egg exports.  Prefixes like foo:bar
should all be removed, as you can now define prefix at import
time. It's a good idea to try to ensure that the unprefixed names
make sense by themselves, too.

So while 'foo:initialize' and 'foo:get-foobar' makes sense,
and 'get-foobar' makes sense too, 'initialize' probably does not.
This could better be renamed to initialize-foo, or something like it.

Cheers,
Peter
