While writing my text the weight lays on "What should we do with this 
extension" no who can edit it. But you are right of cause: Only 
registered and to the project assigned people should insert patches to 
this project.

Additionally I contacted Georg Ringer, but I haven't got an answer right 
now. Is he a TYPO3 Admin? I think he is, but I don't really know it.

So: Hello TYPO3 Admins...please get in touch with me because of 
assigning quixplorer project to my nickname froemken.
