Extras
Extras is the centralised maemo repository that holds contributed applications.
To provide the simplest interface for end users to get good quality third party software that downloads and installs flawlessly, without compromising their default system.– Quim Gil
Extras is split into 2 areas: free and non-free.
- free applications are Open Source have been through the Maemo Extras vetting process
- non-free applications are usually closed, binary only and their quality and security must be taken on trust
