[TYPO3-UG US] TYPO3 US: audience

[Michael Cannon]

Content editors are not generally part of the technology decisions  
for my clients. It's more of the sale of the system to the C-class  
folks or an appointed technology lead telling me a companies  
requirements.

The content editor gets what's provided to them. If they told the C- 
class or technology lead what they want, then they might get it.
