LOL :-)


Just drop me a mail, maybe we can meet next week on campus to chat a bit.

Maybe there's also some overlap to my project, which is about
integrating Semantic Ontologies into TYPO3. This involves generating
domain models out of them - or, more generally speaking, using the
information provided by Ontologies to generate new record types. This
will be integrated into the Extension Builder. I also strive for
generating the UI (TCEforms) out of the semantic data model.
The long-term goal is to ease reuse of existing content models, esp. the
well thought-off models from an Ontology, and to allow decoupling
content models from frontend plugins.

Oh, and some words about myself: I'm 24 years old, enrolled to
Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at the University of
Karlsruhe (KIT). I work with TYPO3 since 2003, being active in Core
hacking since around 2006. Since March 2011 I'm part of the core team
v4, currently working - besides GSoC - on the refactoring of TCEforms
and on the File Abstraction Layer (FAL).


Cheers
Andreas
