Most of the extra packages are misfiled. They were entered into the
package hierarchy before the current uploading mechanism was in place.
I plan to go through the packages, directory by directory, and check
the priorities (and sections). I'll have this done before 1.2 is
released.
Only appropriate packages are entering extra now.
