 From their FTP site:
GNOME 2.16 -> Tomboy 0.4.1
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.16/2.16.3/sources/
Gnome 2.18 -> Tomboy 0.6.3
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.18/2.18.3/sources/

Normally, being part of the desktop, Tomboy should adopt the same 
numbering scheme, but this is up to their developers.

I have not checked this, but it may have dependence on certain versions 
of other GNOME/GTK+ libraries

There is no such thing as FC6 devel repo, there is only one devel repo 
and it is heading to Fedora 8

After the merger, Extras still exists only for older releases, not for 
current or development.
