Read some of the treads, and maybe you understand Dmitry better.

They indicate that he is working on a really large and in some instance 
complex website. When you are moving to that leauge, paid support are 
the natural way.

Larger possibilites for errors? Lack of knowlegde of TYPO3?

None of these extensions use xclassing, so its not the problem here.

Yes, xclassing are a part of TYPO3, but regardless that it should be 
avoided. Personally I try to avoid any extensions which uses xclasses, 
because you can be 100 % sure that it breaks sometimes in the future.

I don't make all the templates (not 50 % of them), and this isn't only a 
HTML-template problem. It's was also a problem in the XML-parser, wrong 
configuration of database and so on.

I have been aware of the problem since I started using TV 5 years ago, 
but's often some errors slip through.

On nearly 40 websites I have had these problems 4 - 5 times, and I know why.

As stated before, it doesn't make any conflict in my tests. Before 
simulatebe can be added to any list, it has to be checked a lot more.

In which order the extensions are loaded could also be the problem.

People will probably make comments without doing a proper investigation 
of the problem. I never file a bug or gives comments like this unless I 
have had the ecaxt samme error on 3 different installation.

For instance, the use of simulatebe indicates the use of frontend 
editing. And there are extensions which are making the frontende editing 
  better, and most of them has the possibilities with wrong 
configuration to break TV.

If something like this is going to work, the comments has to be 
moderated and commented by the author. Personally I want them to fix bugs.


Best Erik.
