Stop. Yeah, maybe Warren forgot to send a mail it. But maybe he wrote
one and it got lost or sorted out by a spam filter. There are plenty of
good and bad reasons why a mail might get lost or forgotten...

I don't really want to know who was the culprit. I really don't care. It
will happen again if we don't have a proper solution that prevents it.
The easiest one: If a package is move into Core and a Extras packager
notices it he should disable building of that package in Extras CVS,
even if it's not his package. 

The second solution involves a bit more work: run a script that checks
for such stuff. Christian?
