Those packages are OK for me.
I put them in "experimental" for various reasons.

fonts-ttf-japanese-*: We have four Japanese font packages in Cooker.
    I think they are enough for most users.
fluxbox-1.0-0.2: It is RC2. (but recently(?) the developers said
    it was stable. Maybe it's OK for Cooker main.
    http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ )
dosemu: a development release.
ip6, quasi88, xnp2: emulators of Japanese computers.
    Some of them don't work correctly without BIOS roms.
hatari: an Atari ST emulator. It is cool, but maybe it is not a
    must software for Cooker.
scim-honoka-*: They are SVN snapshots.
    The development of scim-honoka has been suspended.
    I don't test them with the latest scim...
ptetex3: It is a must for Japanese users, but it overwrites official
    tetex packages. See also

    rpmlint will say you should not upload it to Cooker. :-)
xetex: I don't test it well...
    http://archives.mandrivalinux.com/cooker-i18n/2006-12/msg00002.php
TiMidity: a CVS snapshot. I removed some interfaces to reduce
    dependencies. TiMidity is one of the core packages, so I don't want
    to recommend my customized package.
Others: Small tools. Maybe they are not so important for Cooker.

Regards.
Hirosi
