+1 for the idea. I'd prefer 'samples'. Longer term we might consider another directory named 'contrib'. (Actually if we get some people to sprint with us at PyCon, this might be no so long term).
If we do go this route, I would suggest that PARCELDIR become PARCELPATH so that it can include a list of directories to use. That way I could still point at my personal parcel directory and this new 'extensions' directory.
+1. Actually I think we should do this regardless.

I'd like to propose a new toplevel directory within the chandler tree.
Originally, I wanted to call it "sdk" or "examples" because I wanted to place a skeleton parcel there that anyone could easily pull down and build themselves, without it living in the parcels directory (and thus being picked up by chandler - you may have already noticed a "start here" app in parcels/osaf/examples that defines some pretty goofy Kind's)
But I realized that it might be a nice place for us to put some work-in-progress parcels, or other sort of sample-apps, without hooking them into chandler and being tied to a product release or anything.
So I'd like to propose this new toplevel directory and call it "extensions" - it would NOT be part of the build process, but it would be pulled down by CVS. It would be structured in such a way that you could set PARCELDIR to point to it, and Chandler would pick up the extensions. If an extension ever became a full-fledged chandler feature, then we'd move it out of extensions/ and into parcels/
Let me know if you agree, object, or just have a better name.
