See How to contribute to Poi.
These are not necessarily deemed to be high enough quality to be included in the
core distribution, but they have been tested under Submissions of modifications
to Poi which are awaiting review. Anyone can
comment on them on the dev mailing list - code reviewers are needed!

The other extensions listed here are not endorsed by the Poi
project either - they are provided as a convenience only. They may or may not work,
they may or may not be open source, etc.
