https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories has a
definition for the Extras repos. on C7 it should include what is
upstream in the Extras/ repos ( provided we are able to build it ), and
other things that are needed sometimes to build content in base / updates.

In addition to this, Extras should contain all centos-release-* files
from the SIG's.

The only other content that should make it into Extras should be content
vetted by the core sig, considered fundamental to user experience or
tooling for user experience. ie. a fairly high barrier to entry.

Does that give us enough policy wording for Extras ? Do we have
exceptions we need to work through ?
