[Typo3-dev] Typo3 Data Model

[dan frost]

I have developed a system of "resources". Resources are objects based on 
a strict object definition. It is possible for the data source of a 
resource to be anywhere.

To apply this to our problem of sharing content between sites (even if 
the sharing is just once, that is a transfer/import of data) we create a 
resource "Typo3 page" which contains all the intelligence required to 
get the content from which ever database, xml file or whatever.

Then we create a "use Typo3 page" plugin which:
1. Creates a "Typo3 page" resource object
2. Asks the object for the content
3. Does whatever with it.

As ever, it's a framework and so is very flexible but quite hard to use.

Any clearer?
