Fine with me, too.

And for the ExtJS part in TCEforms: I plan to do a coding session on
TCEforms "2.0" at the beginning of August. Perhaps we can get everything
a bit more concrete until then and already integrate some ExtJS stuff
into TCEforms?
I plan to separate the view from the rest of TCEforms, so it might be
even easier to integrate ExtJS. But that's only some rough ideas until
now, I have to get it more concrete first.

Cheers
