[TYPO3-english] (TYPO3) Surf as official product?

[Michael Stucki]

Hi Steffen,

I think Surf was just used as an example to show the potential of having
a maker brand. As far as I can see it is not handled as a separate
product, just as Fluid isn't either.

Like Stefan already mentioned: They both don't even have their own
website...

Greetings, Michael
