Thorsten, I, for one, very much like the idea of an "Enterprise Extras" (or whatever the naming ends up as). However, the hurdle I envision is that of co-maintainers for "Enterprise Extras" and Fedora Extras, respectively. That is, FE is currently entirely voluntary in that maintainers are only asked to contribute as much as they are able in terms of time, code, documentation, translations, et al. Yet, many of our contributors do not use RHEL/CentOS and would not be able to support their packages on it. Thus, we would not branch our Extras CVS for it. Alas, there are probably many others who *do* use RHEL/CentOS and would like to hve these packages maintained for them. Would there be someway to distinguish that seperate people maintain the RHEL branch(es) than do the Fedora branch(es)? For example, I currently do not use RHEL or any of its no-cost derivates, so I would be quite unable to support Scribes or Openbox or other of my packages on it. But, say that John Doe Contributor actively used RHEL at home and at his workplace (due to its warranty support via paid-for contractual obligations), and he really liked Scribes. Could he go through the new contributor process and whatnot and maintain just the RHEL branch(es)?
