Ok, let's be more specific. On what basis are packages from downstream 
accepted ? I can see a list of packages in CentOS Extras, but no clear 
relation. Let alone some "homogenous user experience plan".

Also during FOSDEM this year (wrt. additional packages) you clearly 
articulated that the CentOS project was going to return to its core 
business, and do that well. How does that match with a CentOS Extras 
repository ?

This is confusing me now, especially since kmod-drbd is out of sync with 
upstream and most of the packages in CentOS Extras have not been updated 
since 2007/2008.
