This directory contains useful detectors and extensions, which
are both Roundup plugins.

Plugins or Extensions

Historically, Roundup plugins were called extensions, then at some
point appeared specialized class of extensions called detectors.

extensions extend tracker instance adding new utils, actions and
(since 1.6.0) URL handlers for web part. detectors allow to change
the behavior of data model by adding reactors to data change events.

The API difference between detector and extension is that first
gets db argument for its init() function and the second gets
tracker instance. Both extend Roundup if placed into corresponding
directories of tracker home, so they both can be called in a more
familiar manner as plugins.
