[Typo3-dev] Status on extension reviews...?

[Stig N. Jepsen]

I think that it is very important that we get some kind of rating and
comment system for the extensions. Currently there are so many
extensions available, - for example - which calendar extension should I
choose? Should I go for the original extension extended by other
extensions or should I....? If there were comments and ratings on the
different extensions, it would be much easier to get a picture over
which extension I should choose.)

I would just like to know if anyone knows how it's going with this
little project:

Yes.

That is the plan.

Yes, another good idea. Next Tuesday, ok?
