[TYPO3] Which photogallery?

[Jan-Philipp Halle]

Hi Ryan,

currently I try to collect ideas for a new gallery extension.
You can find my call for comments under the topic "Just another
gallery extension" in t.t.extension-coordination.

Because I share your experiences with lz_gallery and the others,
I try to set up a new project. I'm advanced in extension development,
but time is rare. So can need some helping hands :-) Or maybe you
just can spend some ideas.

Greetings, Jan-Philipp Halle
