I use them everyday on one of my boxes.
They all sit on the HD, similar in structure to DSL's repository,
that I pull from when needed..
Most notably are the original extensions, the dsl-dpkg.dsl,
and the gnu-utils.dsl, which add in what has been removed for
space reasons.. I use those most frequently..
I still run DSL 1.5, so they all work for me.
Many of them no longer work in the later DSL builds..
Extensions make creating your own custom build so easy,
with the mkmydsl system.. anyone can customize.
On my other boxes, I use custom builds which include the extensions
added back into the main ci, or as piggybacks, or remasters.
Extensions? YES, YES, YES..
DSL would not be a competitive distro without them.
I think the ability to add many popular apps and things
people WANT to use in their distro is the beauty of DSL.
