Pre-extras is just Fedora Extras without all of the infrastructure in place. For example, there are just a very limited number of people with CVS commit access and the build system isn't up yet. Pre-extras was released to help stop all the complaining about fedora.us not building FC3 packages. Work has been going on, there just wasn't a public place to put that work. That public place is now pre-extras. After the rest of the infrastructure is in place, pre-extras will go away and there will finally be a Fedora Extras. -- William Hooper
