Possible to make extensions subdirectory a separate package?

Hi! I think that making contents of proposed extensions subdirectory a separate package from pylint itself would be a great convenience for users who may not be ready to update to most recent version of pylint, but are interested in some optional checker. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! - mulhern

I don't use them but testing them as third-party packages could also help determine if and when they should become part of pylint proper. This is an excellent suggestion Anne!

Is there anybody else besides me who thinks they might have a checker or so to contribute to this package? I _think_ I might have two, one about overrides of methods or attributes which give the same value as what they override and so are effectively pointless, and one about internationalization. - mulhern
