Ouch, sorry about that, will revise soon'ish. Meanwhile the git repo is
still available here:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql-extension.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/extension

No. It so happens that earthdistance depends on cube and that we agreed
on not implement dependencies between extensions for the first patch.
The problem here is that ALTER EXTENSION earthdistance SET SCHEMA foo;
would relocate cube objects too, because there's nothing to stop the
recursive walking at the right spot. So earthdistance.control states
that earthdistance is not relocatable for now.
And a non relocatable extension will use @extschema@ so that users still
get a say in where to install it…

Exactly, the consensus seems to be that we *want* to maintain separate
versions number for each contrib.

Yeah.
