hi,

So we now have RHEL media, RHEL optionals and RHEL Extras. Optionals and
media seems to tie in as before, however Extras has its own policy +
lifeterm etc.

Thoughts on what we might do with those rpms ? I'd have though that
putting them in CentOS-Extras would line up nicely. Content that is
available out of the blocks to anyone with a CentOS install, but not
themselves included in the distro.

thoughts ?

I like that approach. If these packages actually have different lifetime expectancies, may change versions, etc. I think putting them in Base could be problematic. CentOS-Extras seems like a good compromise. Is there any reason these might need to be separated from what was historically in CentOS-Extras?
