[Typo3-marketing] Demosite

[Daniel Hinderink]

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestions.

I suggest, we try to get a minimal scenario up and running first and then
start to branch out into different extended scenarios.

Not only is the work involved to create even one demo site quite
substantial, it doesn't stop there. Kasper put quite a lot of work into the
initial test and demo sites, the problem is to maintain them.

So let's aim for something we can reach for sure.
I think that the initial scenario to have a rather regular website that
shares a certain amount of the content with another TV-based one will fit a
lot of information needs.

As for the types listed below, I wonder if we really need them as demo sites
(with login and all) or if these scenarios could be communicated by simply
describing them with diagrams, screenshots and such.

Are you with me on settling for short term goals and making sure the
maintenance is rolling?

Cheers,

Daniel
