And that is the point - all over the forums are warnings for users not to go into the extras-testing or extras-dev which leads to less people testing.
Im happy to test, but not at the risk of bricking my device (I know its unlikely) but my personal fear is either corrupting the file system or filling the root file partition.
Id like to vote for a decent map solution - Ovi maps is too terrible to mention, I cant wait for maemo mapper
