Stating that Debian security updates "rely on community volunteers" is meaningless, since of course the entirety of Debian is constructed by "community volunteers". I suspect that what was suggested by second class status is that the practical results of the handling of the Extras for Fedora Core make them somewhat less well managed than the mainline packages. I am just guessing of course, since I know little of Fedora Core myself.
