WS02 G-REG new metadata type - wso2

Question

We're testing G-Reg for use of a SOA repository. The default types are Services, WSDL's, Schemas and WS Policies, we're triying to add a new type (Persons for example).
Once added, we want to create a xml to specify the fields that needs to be filled to upload a new resource of the "Persons" type, (like the Services type actual funcionality).
We've followed the guide on http://docs.wso2.org/wiki/display/Governance411/Configurable+Governance+Artifacts, but with no success of creating the example named "Events", because there exists contradictory information, the path "/_system/governance/repository/components/org.wso2.carbon.governance/types", doesn't exists on GREG 4.1.1, so where is supposed the content to be uploaded?
And, the guide explains about a "registry extension file" and a "content", which is the difference between them?, they need a name?, content.xml and extfile.xml perhaps?
Any orientation will be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Gabriel.

Here is a sample server.rxt file I have created.
<artifactType type="application/vnd.wso2-server+xml" shortName="server" singularLabel="Server" pluralLabel="Servers" hasNamespace="false" iconSet="5">
<storagePath>/servers/#{overview_name}/</storagePath>
<ui>
<list>
<column name="Name">
<data type="path" value="overview_name" href="#{storagePath}"/>
</column>
</list>
</ui>
<content>
<table name="Overview">
<field type="text" required="true">
<name label="name">Name</name>
</field>
<field type="text" required="true">
<name label="url">url</name>
</field>
<field type="text" required="true">
<name label="username">username</name>
</field>
<field type="text" required="true">
<name label="password">password</name>
</field>
</table>
</content>
</artifactType>
you need to save this under the directory you have mentioned.
/_system/governance/repository/components/org.wso2.carbon.governance/types
this location is not exits. But you need to create this directory and save.
After restart you should see the new type under meta data list
