You are well aware of my views so I won't repeat them here.  But I still don't 
understand what you achieve by not using extras-devel?  I understand the 
frustration with the Extras process but what do you achieve by having your 
own repository except limit your distribution even further by making it even 
less likely anyone can find your apps?  Why not put them in extras-devel and 
not bother to promote them if you don't like the promotion process?  

I just don't see how using your own repository is actually any **better** than 
just using extras-devel?
