Then, there are<br>> "global" extensions, which can be put under "typo3/ext/". This is useful if<br>> you have a third-party-extension that you want to distribute to multiple<br>> installations (like e.g. tt_news back then in 3.6) that *you* download and<br>> install there. This feature is really only helpful if you have 1 TYPO3 source,<br>> that multiple installations are using, but comes with the price that you need<br>> to copy all your global extensions when updating TYPO3 from 4.5.12 to 4.5.13.<br>> Then you have the "local" extensions under "typo3conf/ext/", - your<br>> installation-specific extensions, which I guess, all of you are using.<br>> <br>> We are currently think of dropping the "global" extension concept which we<br>> think (but don't know for sure) is rarely used since ages, and also pretty<br>> much unmaintained, as we consider this feature with all the composer-bells-<br>> and-whistles today not useful for keeping.<br>> <br>> So as a roundup:<br>> <br>> * System extensions: typo3/sysext/<br>> * Your global extensions: typo3/ext/<br>> * Your local extensions: typo3conf/ext/<br>> <br>> What I would like to know is simple:<br>> <br>> Are you using the "global extension" feature currently?<br>> <br>> All of you with Gerrit access, feel free to vote the pending patch as well:<br>> <br>> https://review.typo3.org/#/c/34552/<br>> <br>> Thanks for your time!<br>> <br>> All the best,<br>> Benni<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Before posting to this list, please have a look to the posting rules on the<br>> following websites:<br>> <br>> http://typo3.org/teams/core/core-mailinglist-rules/<br>> http://typo3.org/development/bug-fixing/diff-and-patch/<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> TYPO3-team-core mailing list<br>> TYPO3-team-core@lists.typo3.org<br>> http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-team-core<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Before posting to this list, please have a look to the posting rules<br>on the following websites:<br><br>http://typo3.org/teams/core/core-mailinglist-rules/<br>http://typo3.org/development/bug-fixing/diff-and-patch/<br>_______________________________________________<br>TYPO3-team-core mailing list<br>TYPO3-team-core@lists.typo3.org<br>http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-team-core<br></body>
