=== What is Fedora Extras ===
Fedora Extras are sets of packages that augment Fedora Core but do not replace Fedora Core component packages. These packages, like all packages that are part of The Fedora Project, must conform to the legal requirements of the project and conform to the Fedora Extras policies.

Fedora Extras is currently available for Fedora Core 3 and 4.
