In the CAR is all what comes from the official rules and clarification,
here and there some house rules, but not the fan-expansions...

But for some reason there are quite a few fan-made variants listed in the CAR.

I must admit I never understood the reasoning behind that...

Neither did I

Seeing how large CAR is for the official rules alone, I'd like to have the fanmade put in a separate file.

This is not a document with rules so it has nothing to do with the CAR.
This is a list of completed and not-yet completed fan-made expansions and variants with information about number of tiles and extra pieces required.

I was thinking in add a list of fan-made expansions and variants that could be a reference, without the rules of them of course

Several years ago, HiG published some fan-made variants on their web site. Matt decided that earned them a place in the CAR.

HiG had some fan-made expansions on their site as well.
If that would be the trigger to get a place in the CAR,
then I would be griefstrucken to see the railroads expansion in the CAR.

Since I was done going through fan-made expansions on CarcC,
I have now gone on to BGG.
(I will not go through CarcF since I don't know german).
But I don't find five that I have heard of:
-The Oracle
-Fairy Trader and Ferry Friend
-That here may be food in my house
-Dominions
-City on Fire

Anyone who knows where to find these ?

I haven't heard of any of them except That there may be food in my house- that was the original name for the revised Tithe Barns (latest version here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/o2oyb2j33g4fegw/ ), but since it was kind of long and people just referred to it as tithe barns so I changed it back.

Ok, thanks.
The Oracle was by gunpowdertea
