[TYPO3-dev] new EXT:categorize to categorize everything

[Franz Koch]

Hi,
> i am working on a new extension called categorize [1] which makes it

> records, fe-users,...) with the same categories.
> 
> The main advantage is: Inside a plugin you can define: I want all 
> records with the categories A+B and you will get all FE-User which got 
> those 2 categories and all news records and so on. Of course this can be 
> restricted to a spefic table too.
> 
> Every marker you want to use is defined inside the TS, so nothing to do

> element (which has been categorized) [3].
> 
> If you want to use the categories at your own extension all you would 
> need to do is: Define a mm-relation to the category-table and set 2 
> lines of TS.
> 
> First screenshots are at forge too [4].

and another categorization extension *sigh* :(. Why haven't you joined 
forces with Mads Brunn and his "tx_categories" extension which has the 
same aim as yours, and why haven't I read about your extension in the 
ECT list?
