The Chandra community has been using the ACIS Extract (AE) software package to extract and analyze sources in ACIS observations since y2002. AE brings significant automation to the extraction of point-like and diffuse sources, and provides a simple analysis strategy for projects that involve multiple overlapping observations. The community has in past years applied AE to some very complex Chandra projects, e.g. the Chandra Deep Field and the Galactic Center. The AE developers have recently completed their first AE analysis of similar scale---the 14,000 point sources and extensive diffuse emission in the Carina Very Large Project. That experience has significantly refined AE's capabilities and recipes; we will illustrate some of this new functionality with examples from Carina.
