+1  Q: 

Where did the ExportFactory<T> from desktop MEF go?

I can't find it!?

+3  A: 

ExportFactory<T> is not part of MEF for the desktop (yet - as of now, it's only released for Silverlight). It looks like it will be included in MEF 2.

In the meantime, Glenn Block posted a version of the Composition.Initialization assembly ported to MEF for desktop development, and placed it on his SkyDrive. Alternatively, you can use the Preview 1 release of MEF2, which includes this.
