Hi!
IMO there two types of devs.
1. Setting up a Typo3-System. Don't care for updates and security fixes,
because "never change a running system". So they are not up to date with
changes of Typo3.
2. Setting up a Typo3-System, using every new stable version. They get
the changes by them self and are normally up to date.
So, with an update from 3.x to 4.x, you have to do a little bit more, so
you should check your TS with a list of with outdated stuff, which could
be done the following way:
What about some script just checking, which will show outdated TS. So
the parser stays slim... It can be included via UpdateManager, which is
recommanded for an update of the version to a new version. Perhaps
something simular can be done with all PHP-Scripts (keyword:
PHPCodeSniffer/ PHP Tokenizer).
Cheers,
Malte
