Internet Explorer Warning Update
This extension is a fantastic way to site developers make activism against the IE6, and does exactly what it intends to do: warning the visitors to change or update the browser.

masscontent
It's a fantastic component to them who wants gain time editing lots of articles simultaneously! It divides an article in four parts: (1) Title, (2) Alias (optionally autofilled!), (3) Intro text and (4) Full text. The diference between (3) and (4) is that the first one comes before the "Read More", and the last one comes after the "Read More". The "Read More" properly said, is inserted automatically by the Plugin. Easy, intuitive and charmful!

It's a very, very good Plugin, which does exactly what it intends to do: let the first image of an article has the same function that has the "Read More" button. Whatever, I missed something: if the image has the same power that the "Read More" button, why the Plugin don't give some option to hide this button? Anyway, it's very usefull!
Owner's reply

In fact, Joomla Core already have the option to hide the "Read More" button.
Content->Article Manager->Parameters->Read More...Links
Please select "Hide".

Embed PDF (pdfembed) simply and easily does what it tries to do: it adds charmful a PDF inside an article! Just remember the codeline mode (it's not a "Joomla article's URL treated as weblink", be carefull! it's a simple text which has a URL inside it!):

{pdf=http://.../file.pdf|100%|600}

Attachments for Joomla!
It's a very well done extension, which does what it try to do. It simplifies the life of Joomla article's publishers in that cases where the article would be better if referred to a file (attachment).

GCalendar
If you would like to improve your Joomla site with a very well done Calendar extension, based in what nowadays there is of better in web Calendar solution (the Google Calendar), so GCalendar does the job easily e charmful. There are basically two view modes: the "GCalendar" and the "Google [Calendar]"; they are vere similar, but the second one is even better than the first. Enjoy it!

Fabrik
It's a very smart extension. With just some time (maybe some hours) investing in to understand the principles of how Fabrik works, is possible to develop very good applications (form based, in my case), updating directly a database table exportable to CSV files... in resume: a good choice for those who needs complex forms in Joomla.

RokBridge
It's a very well done extension, which does what it try to do. One tip: in the field "phpBB3 path", don't start the path with "/", neither finish it with "/". In my case only the following path was enough: phpBB3

AJAX Shoutbox
This is an excellent module! But it has a little bug, easily fixed. Just follow these instrucitons to do it...

For the problem showing text in the wrong (UTF-8) character set, you can make some changes in the file /modules/mod_shoutbox.php.

Search for "function jal_addData(" and after " $jal_user_text = substr($jal_user_text,0,500);
" add this:

$jal_user_text = mb_convert_encoding($jal_user_text, "ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8");

if your encoding is ISO-8859-1 or change it according to yours.
