+# The page for each extension must have the <tt>PackageForm</tt> (copy from Foswiki.org),
+# and should have the packaged extension attached as a <tt>zip</tt> and/or
+# <tt>tgz</tt> file.

+# The search list is a semicolon-separated list of repository specifications, each in the format: <i>name=(listurl,puburl,username,password)</i>
