Is it possible to package an extension without using Adobe Extension Manager?

No, there is no way that I know of, after talking to DW engineers about it.
The .mxp format is not available. Basically it's a zip file with some added
information, but that information is unknown.

I don't believe it is. Remember that you need to have your users able to
install it and they need the EM for that anyway.

Oops, I should have been more descriptive. I still want to package the extensions in an mxp file for distribution, but I'm looking for a way to do this without using the Extension Manager, per se (I want to automate the process). Does the Extension Manager support command line usage?
