Now that I'm getting back into active TYPO3 development, I've got the drive
to update some of my published TYPO3 extensions. Before doing updates
blindly and not solving problems, I'd like to know which extensions are
those that you use, would like updated and have suggestions for.
Please comment below<http://typo3vagabond.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=13466&action=edit&message=1#respond>
with
your recommendations.
Requests for cbrealurl are kept to its own
article<http://typo3vagabond.com/13459/typo3/suggestions-wanted-how-should-i-revise-cbrealurl/>

As I know that difference_viewer and log_analyzer are in current use and
development, I would like feedback on how to improve those extensions.
For the other extensions, there's great functionality that needs
documentation and I would like to know which you think should be given that
attention.
Finally, for extensions that don't get any "love", I'll be marking them as
obsolete.
