[TYPO3-english] TYPO3 6.2 which Extensions will still work?

[Andreas Becker]

Hi

After Tolleiv announced that TemplaVoila will be discontinued we and
customers are very worried! as most of our customers have Sites based on
TemplaVoila and they are very happy with it as there is nothing similar
which comes close to its usability for Content and Site Creators in the CMS
universe!

What about tt_news - we read that his seems to be discontinued to or no
more maintained properly. As it is pi based will it still work in TYPO3
6.2? I know that there are alternatives but they often don't have the
flexibility like tt_news had when modifying tt_news for other purposes like
presenting only news. Isn't tt_products based on it too?

What about cal another great extensions used in several sites? Will it be
possible to upgrade from 4.5 LTS to 6.2 LTS without problems and bigger
investments - Time and Bug Fixing?

What about real url? We realized during the last updates of the 6.* branch
that it is always again and again breaking. Isn't it's coding similar to
what we have in TemplaVoila in terms on how difficult it is to maintain.
Meanwhile we switched many sites again to cooluri which works much more
consitantly in TYPO3 6.*

What about commerce - long time nobody seems to be talking anymore about
it? Still existing and working in TYPO3 6.0!

What about Multishop - the best shop solution for TYPO3 and very very
flexible but perhaps in the way of some developers too like TYPO3 as major
fixes in the core don't take place to get it working in TYPO3 6.1

"TYPO3 Multishop version 3.0 is currently heavily under development. We
expect to deliver the final version to the public in February 2013." since
February no progress Why?

What about mm_forum - what alternatives can be used in 6.2?
