Hi!

Several FE-Extension are designed to print content to the FE ;)
Haveing the fact in mind that it is quite a common need for several 
TYPO3-projects to have a "What's new"/"Teasing"-view of current/new content, 
please discuss the following suggestion:

Let's define an API (preferably a "service"-API) that defines a method/API 
for FE-Plugins to share data for such a teasing view.
Current teasing-Plugins can of course only collect data from tables with 
known data structure (for example tt_content, tt_news). This service would 
allow for a teasing plugin to collect new articles from several (on day 
possibly all) registered FE-Plugins.

Possible request configuration:
- Permissions
- date_cr / date_mod
- content body length
- ... ?

Possible data to be shared:
- Header
- Content body
- date_cr / date_mod
- ... ?

Any suggestions and comments welcome!

  robert.
