The Maintainer column denotes whether the extension is maintained by the Goose team or by a third party. For the extensions maintained by the Goose team, the Support tier column denotes the extension's support status. Primary extensions are covered by community support. Secondary extensions are supported on a best-effort basis. That said, they still receive frequent bugfixes/updates and are shipped with new Goose releases.
