the extensions i want to merge is the news_plus, dkd_newsmulticats and
probably also with sp_news_catimgs.
These are all extensions for the tt_news extension.

But I think that it's a pity, that it is necessary to alter the codes for
these extensions to make them all work together.
It's not very obvious that you have to do this. And only people who wants to
go deep into Typo3 will know how to do this.
