Exactly the opposite actually. I am in the process of merging in the Library 
stuff done by Adam in myrmidon which will involve breaking backwards 
compatability with package manager. It would seem unreasonable to do it in 
extension when I would break your codebase and besides Extension is exiting 
Avalon anyway.

I suggest we work on this together under a branch of the Excalibur 
Extension package. Just for reference, no decision has been taken 
concerning the exiting of the extension package and as such it remains 
an Avalon concern.
