Hi Helmut!

I'd be willing to chime in, if I count as qualified :)


Kind regards

> Here is a list of things that are missing:
>
> * Streamline creating and edtiting functionality
>         * better version picker
>         * concept for entering "nested data"
>         * CVSS input wizard
>         * Basic rich text editor for some fields
>         * Good product picker (select TYPO3 products as well as one of >
> 2000 Extensions)
>         * much more
>
> * Create an (cli) importer for Extension/Versions (and probably TYPO3 CMS,
> Flow, Neos versions)
> * Implement published/ non published states for advisories
> * Implement Security policies with certain permissions on views and data
> (published advisories for all, non published advisories of extensions, non
> published advisories for TYPO3 products, issue lists, issue creation etc.)
> * Importer for old advisories (from semi structured HTML)
> * or alternatively edit view for easy manual creation of old advisories
> * Create possibility to ship the application as Neos plugin
>
> and probably more.

> So we're looking for a qualified Flow developer who would like to pick
