+1 For to consider more. With only a message with the link to a wiki list it is 
very easy to oversee something and more important there is no information about 
to what for a certain time it will be done.

I have not anything against having more (or less) applications from aur but i 
was a little bit surprised as my favorite editor for the console joe get throwed 
out of extra.

So i ask for the possibility of having a RSS Feed (or a web page) with at 
examples such lines

2010-11-10 joe -> OLD REPO: EXTRA NEW REPO: AUR
2010-11-10 appXYZ -> OLD REPO: EXTRA NEW REPO: NULL
2010-11-12 libXYZ -> OLD REPO: COMMUNITY NEW REPO: EXTRA

Is there any change that this could realize without too much extra cost?

See you, Attila
