[Typo3-dev] More comfort for developers?

[Daniel Hinderink [TYPO3]]

Hi Matthias, hi butsch,

Somebody write a project description and we'll find out in a short while, if
the market responds.

> If so, do we get the cash-pool up and running?

See above, explain what the plan is and we'll publicise it in the projects
section on org.
This works exeptionally well, sponsoring has been a very good success so far
with DAM, DBAL, partly also the projectmanager and has also started to pick
up on Workflow. There are some new projects in the pipeline, that will be
taking much attention, so it is the right time to squeeze in the editor.

Why should it be a commercial extension? It should be easy to raise 3000
Euros from the community if there is demand for the proposed features.

If it is not a stand alone application it has to be GPL.

See above, sponsoring.

I am gone now for two weeks, so butsch,  may be you can write a project
description until then.

Cheers
