Either way we should start to seriously debate what tasks Core needs to
do, and work to avoid duplication in task completion.

"Extras not defined" is FUD spread by certain individuals who have
refused to cooperate in a collaborative project. When Extras happens it
will initially be a quick import of everything we have now. Lieutenants
chosen among community members will act as a gatekeeper allowing stuff
in. Updates to existing packages will be allowed in very quickly like
current Extras policy, except directly through CVS. New package
additions will however will go through a high level of scrutiny. Of
course all of this depends entirely on how much we generally trust the
contributor.
