I agree completely but i have formed the impression [perhaps mistakenly]
that packages moved to extras are "orphaned" packages as far as RH is
concerned. Or is that just the norm and not the "law"? I think you will
allay a great many fears and improve the perception of extras if this is
the case and it is communicated to the user/dev base a little better. In
case i am completely mistaken is there a reference document that spells
out the distinctions and flow of this type of information? I would much
rather read up on it than learn bit by bit pestering people over mailing
lists.
