This snapshot should work flawless with TYPO3 V4rc3.

It is also tested very roughly with V3.8.1. It works in principle but have 
some problems. I hope to fix that till the final.

This version is a pre RC version. Means things to be "Work in progress" (see 
below) needs still to be finished but apart from that no more changes will be 
made. Expect a real RC this week.


News

- In form fields category trees are browsable.
- The Element Browser is rewritten which should fix a bunch of bugs.
- The MM table handling for references did not make it into TYPO3 V4. 
Therefore the functionality is provided by a new extension: ""mmforeign".
- Several bugfixes as always.


Known bugs

- Using the search box in element browser makes loosing the current selection 
sometimes.
- Processing meta data of uploaded files don't work in element browser.


Known limitations

- Category editing is not yet integrated. Editing has still to be done with 
the category module. This might not change for the final version.
- In process module category trees are NOT browsable.


Work in progress

- Going through all bug reports
- Auto indexing enhancements
- Class tx_dam_media


Changes (for developers)

To make use of the selection stuff in FE some code was refactored.
You have to adapt two components:
- modules
- selection classes

In modules folowing objects and variables changed location:
->pointer
	->selection->pointer
->sl
	->selection->sl
->qg
	->selection->qg
->res
	->selection->res
Means you have to change eg $this->pObj-res to $this->pObj-selection->res


In selection classes following methods was renamed:
dam_defaultIcon
	getDefaultIcon
dam_treeTitle
	getTreeTitle
dam_treeName
	getTreeName

dam_itemTitle
	selection_getItemTitle
dam_selectProc
	selection_getQueryPart
