[Typo3-dev] third party application integration

[Martin Seebach]

Hi,

Unless that application has very distinctive separation between logic 
and presentation, yes, you'll have to, at the very least, do some 
fitting of it each time a new version is out.

Anyway, you'd want to include the applications new features in your 
extension. The question is how easy it will be.

Take a look at lz_phpbb. It is a typo3 extension of the popular phpBB 
software. It works pretty well, even though phpBB really doesn't lend it 
self to be integrated very well.

Venlig hilsen
