Extras is available by http Core is not.  right now there are no plans to 
enable it for the merged world.  though things could be built against 
updates-testing and be ready for when it goes live.  the only problem then is 
security fixes that need to be rushed through.  

One of the longer term goals  is to have a means to announce out what was 
built so that Red Hat can do their own builds of rawhide for RHEL.  there is 
no reason that this couldnt be made available to 3rd parties to trigger 
builds for them.
