+1  And really think about it! There will be less trouble without DAM!

+1  Though there are a lot of extension for using DAM in FE and BE, it´s 
hard to find out what they do / don´t do and how far they are really 
working...

+1  So you should be an experienced php programmer / extension developer.

After first being enthusiastic about the very promising "DAM Feature 
List" and then being optimistic while implementing DAM in some larger 
projects now I got very skeptical of DAM and it´s future development.

Not in TYPO3, but - maybe using a different CMS? (OK,OK,dont´t mind :-) )
