This goes to-way. ExtBase let's users get used to FLOW3 basics, but it also is a chance for the
FLOW3/FLUID team where glitches and even problems are.

My experience with ExtBase so far is fine. But would I use it for a real project? Maybe, if it isn't
mission critical. One problem is that ExtBase is as a sysext tied to TYPO3, so you must use the SVN
version if you need any of the new stuff that gets in.
