Is there any reason either one couldn't be true? That is, some packagesI 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.
which RH isn't interested in maintaining, but also some that we
