[FLOW3-general] General maturity of FLOW3

[Christian Lerrahn (Cerebrum)]

Hi,
We are planning to build a project that is built on top of a PHP
framework. We have been using TYPO3 for years and therefore immediately
thought of using FLOW3 as our framework. However, our research into the
maturity level of FLOW3 did not come up with satisfactory results.
According to what we found, there should be a number of pilot products
already but there is hardly any documented trail of those.

Our main questions are as follows.

1. Is the FLOW3 API mature enough to build a full-fledged production
system on?

2. Is there a proper roadmap for FLOW3 that also gives an indication of
when the first release is due?

3. Are there completed projects (no matter how small) with full access
to the source code and possibly even some documentation?

4. Are there any resources amongst developers to assist with questions
about FLOW3 API issues and the like? (In other word will technical
questions on mailing lists most likely have a reasonable response times)

I'm deliberately not disclosing what the project we are planning is all
about. My theory is that we require the kind of maturity and stability
that implies insignificance of the details of the project. In other
words, if FLOW3 isn't mature enough to be used for any kind of project
it is officially intended for now, we might be a bit wary of touching
it already.

Cheers,
Christian
