Maybe there is some confusion in your mind, but there are no non CMS 
components currently developed or supported by TYPO3.

TYPO3 CMS (formerly TYPO3) consists of a framework plus CMS components. 
You can see this in the Extension Manager as you find system extensions 
such as 'cms', 'sv', 'lang', etcetera.

Neos is being developed by the same people who develop Flow as the new 
cms application.

Flow is the framework upon which Neos is developed. It has a name of its 
own and can also be used without Neos for projects.

Fluid is the new templating engine. It is also included in TYPO3 CMS and 
maintained by both the people who develop Flow/Neos and the developers 
of TYPO3 CMS.

Extbase is a backport of Flow and is included as a system extension in 
CMS. Bugfixes in Flow are ported to Extbase and bugfixes in Extbase to 
Flow (if appropriate). Extbase is an important tool to make the 
transition to Neos easier for developers.

The developers of all these parts of TYPO3 work together in one team. 
Some do more with one part, others more with another part. We could of 
course use more resources, but that is true for any project and any team.
At the moment there are more people working on TYPO3 CMS (4.x/6.x) than 
on Flow and Neos. In the future this will of course change, simply 
because at some point in the future Neos will be the main cms application.
