+Extension identifiers
+
+Extension identifiers have been introduced because of the new filename-
+extension (.oxt) might lead to conflicts with older extensions of the same name.
+Previously extensions were identified by their filenames only which is
+insufficient. Old extensions get an automatic legacy identifier and from now on
+an identifier can be explicitly set.
+
+This directory contains two extensions, one being the legacy and the other one
+having the identifier explicitly set. You should be able to install them both
+at the same time.
+
+This feature is tested by framework\basic\f_basic_extension_identifiers.bas.
+The spec can be found here:
+http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/packagemanager/extensionidentifiers.odt
+The feature was brought in by CWS sb66, the issue is #i69910
