[FLOW3-general] why is default context Development and not Production?

[Daniel Felix]

Hi Simon,

you can set the context via htaccess without ssh access. So you don't need to modify the scripts. 

I think the development context is the right default setting. 

If a user had misconfigured something, he'll get automatic debug informations. Especially useful for beginners. 

If he productive environment is production and the user has no idea how to set the development context or how to setup. He'll just get a plain white page instead of nice debug information. ;-)

Best regards,
Daniel Felix
