I have now more success with the Froyo 2.2 MotoBlur port to milestone but it required a more technical approach than just lib replacements here..
Partly because Verizon put some policies on Motorola to put it into the firmware, and partly because it required different audio handling.
Most features seen in MotoFrenzy is also shared here. both good and bad ones. Battery wise this image offers utilities to manage wifi inactivity and battery training policies.
I feel that the features found in the MotoBlur, justify a more proper release, than initially, as Battery management and scalable widgets seems like nice features to me.

SERIOUS BUG IN SMS RECEPTION, IT KEEPS REPEATING RECEPTION (AT LEAST FOR ME HERE)
You can test, but you are now warned! i will try and get a bugfix in place asap!!!Full Image install instructions - You can use G.O.T recovery for installation of the image (i read latest OpenRecovery is no longer compatible)
Copy the included MotoBlur folder onto your sdcard
into the folder /nandroid/adbrecovery and recover from
G.O.T Recovery menu.
First time install information- - Recommended is to remove your SIM card the first time you start up, as the card activation process during setup with a non-Verizon card fails and takes datatraffic and is slow, if you got a card in your phone. Take it out, and you are quickly offered the option to setup later.
- G.O.T recovery should offer your the option to partition your SDCARD if you wish to use a ext2 sdcard partition for apps2sd functionality.
- Overclock included, means you can take the sample "overclock" file from the .zip and copy to your SDCARD, and it will be activated at bootup. you can modify content of the overclock file, but you need to find details on parameters on the authors webpage here.
Current state of this release is:
Issues- Based on release version 2.2.90 of Droid2 firmware found.
Battery manager offers 5,10,15,30 minutes timeout for data connection now. (original was 15,30,45,60)
GPS is a drawback for now, as Motorola started using new communication methods between their drivers on CDMA based firmwares.
Fully deodex'd rom (requires little more memory, but is sufficient in Motorola phone environment)
* It should noted, that Droid2 comes with 512MB RAM, which might for more hours become an issue on milestone, if froyo2.2 memory management handles this badly.
Working- MotoBlur Froyo2.2 functionality fully working.
Languages supported (enabled) English , Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portugese
Data icons fixed (E/G/3G/H) is now shown.

Mobile data
Picture editor (lite edition) works.

File copying over Wifi between windows machines possible. (have seen problem copying to local phone though)
APPS2SD ext2 edition (not native function though)

BlockBuster DRM movie viewing (incompatible libs currently)

BlockBuster application
HelpCenter
TtsService (TalkToSpeech packages)
Firewall service (missing libs in original stock firmware, might be on purpose it's removed)
2.1 kernel limitationsAs with the other 2.2 releases, these functions are limited due to missing kernel upgrades on our milestone.
- Full RIL support cannot be implemented as driver is officially not available.
Camera kernel requirements for focus.
Native Apps2SD in settings.
Swap? (we could only hope)
Bugs certainly exists, as this image has many builtin functions, so if you find any, report them here, and ill look at it.
