Hallo Benni,
thanks for your reply. So to make it short:
* there is no way to update a single field or just a form at the
current state of TCA and TCEforms
* a new version of TCEforms is on the way. What is the status or roadmap
for that? Links?
* Before waiting to get a working version of TCEforms I would like to
proceed, define the requirements. Depending on the status of TCEforms I
would recommend than either to starting developing on "old" version or
new version
Where is the right place to discuss these items?
Peter.
