[TYPO3-dev] List element with re-using content-elements (ICE or special content elements)

[Steffen Kamper]

Hi Christian,

the approach is total different.
Sure sitemap works for showing a linklist in FE.
Oliver's approach is having a "new" CE in BE including contentelements, like 
Joey did in ICE.

I really like the idea and hope to get further using IRRE with existing 
content elements, i didn't had time to look at the last version of ICE.

please go ahead, i like the approach !
