Okay this may be out in the woods...
But what if we (the community by donations) hired someone to do this.
Though I'm a private individual, I'm willing to pay a small amount to
support this. And maybe some of the moneymaking typo3-firms might want
to support this as well?

Of course I don't know if the community is large enough to do this.
But the upside by doing this, is that whoever we here is commited to
this task.
Maybe donations could be in form of a monthly/quarterly subscription or
something like that. And what about a gold subscription-plan which would
give some add-space on typo3.org/com.
I don't know if there already is a commercial/add policy?

Okay, this probably is a very long shot, - I know. But they we just my
thoughts :-)

Anyway - It would be very nice if Kasper could concentrate more on Typo3
itself (I sense that this is what Kasper wants more).

Again - just my thoughts.
