Why do you think Kasper would want to "get TYPO3 to the US"? It's more 
or less *only* US companies that have a (legitimate) interest in getting 
TYPO3 into the market. Remember that Kasper is not getting revenues from 
selling TYPO3 but from contract work which happens (mostly?) in Europe.

It does make sense, but it doesn't help a bit, does it? Most of the nice 
"constructive" criticism like "I'd like to see that happen, somebody 
should do that" is never followed by "therefore I wrote this tutorial".

I really appreciate the efforts of the US TUG to actually *do* something 
but honestly, I understand Tyler's frustration because most of the 
development (in code *and* documentation) is not done by the community 
members who make suggestions here but from the usual suspects, and 
mostly Kasper.

So, no offense, but after being in this community for some time, I am as 
well a little less enthusiastic about such "new ideas", such as 
extension review, tutorial rewrites, reorganisation of docs, as most of 
it *never* happened. Ask Peter Kindström about that topic...
