[TYPO3-english] Oracle & Typo3 + TV

you described the situation very well...

I tried to get in touch with extension developers a lot of time 
providing patches and upgrades but I usually do not receive any answer 
(I'm not speaking about TV now, I didn't try to contact you Dimitry so 
I'm not speaking about you).

In my opinion, this is the reason why a web agency prefers to try to 
solve the problem in house instead of contacting the extension author or 
a core dev. It's mainly a time problem.
