Homebrew and non-core formulae

For a bit now, Homebrew has been able to install directly from urls:
brew install
https://github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt/raw/master/other/rtmpdump-yle.rb
I've been maintaining a semi-official "duplicates" branch that allows
in brews which duplicate OS X software that did was not allowed in
Homebrew core.
The problem with the duplicates branch was that it was a full branch,
of the code and other formulae as well.
This branch has been deprecated and replaced with the (also only
semi-official) homebrew-alt repo:
https://github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt
Please feel free to submit to homebrew-alt, OR to maintain other
formulae-only repos and let us know so we can link to them if they are
useful and maintained.
Also, Mike/Max, please flag any current open "new brews" issues w/
"adamv" if you don't want them in core so I can pull them into alt or
close them entirely.
