Everyone could integreate them to her/his own pd-extended using a simple "-path flatspace", as AFAIK everything netpd uses is already there and people not using pd-extended wouldn't have tons of "import: couldn't create" error messages.
No, zexy and iemlib is not in flatspace ...
You got me as a non-pd-ext-user. Well, then just add zexy and iem to the path. My point is: So far, the standard way to change the path or load libs is through the Preferences or with [declare]. This works on every distribution of Pd. [import] is an alternative way to do it with an external, which only works, if that external is available and if the externals/libraries are installed in the way, pd-extended installes them, that is, the paths are named according to the names pd-extended gave them. (Correct me, if I'm wrong here.)
So to activate netpd's needed externals, one can either do it in a way that works everywhere or one could depend on [import] and a certain path layout.
I have the impression, that the netpd community currently doesn't want to depend on the second, but instead leaves it to the users to set up their environment in a way, that zexy and maxlib objects are available.
