scriptaculous and prototype right. Unfortunatly i i had include them to the
extension since the version shipt with t3 4.1 it selft a slighly modified 
and did not work
as expected.
see :
http://lists.netfielders.de/pipermail/typo3-dev/2007-April/023198.html

(so i included the original ones)

Nice idea but i would like to keep it seperated aslong as it stays at alpha 
stage (because there are a lot of
open issues sees beyond) .  What about putting together an extension that 
just provides prototype and scriptaculous?
If you or someone else would do that i would change dependencies to it and 
remove my js folder. And i guess Maximo
would do the same. What do you think?

Yes, right and known to me (see manual). This is caused by the fact that TV 
handels C&P on destionation and source element "position"
(&source=tt_content:1:sDEF:lDEF:field_contentleft:vDEF:1&destination=tt_content:1:sDEF:lDEF:field_contentleft:vDEF:1 
last paremeter 1).
My JS is capable of updating the destination but not the source ATM. But 
this will be fixed in the next version.

Right also known i gotta improve the AJAX routing to update the clipboard. I 
havent been using the clipboard yet if you know the involved api
calls right off hand feel free to provide a starting point this would save 
me from diggin through the whole api :)

Sorry i dont get it ? :)
BTW: could you add your issues to the bugtracker (ther is a project 
nh_tvdragndrop)

>be too early trying to combine our efforts?
Yes indeed, see above. But i like the idea in gerneral. You want to contact 
me on IRC to discuss further "cooperation" :)

Partly, depends on what do you mean by "alternative layouts" :)

Yes thought about that too. At least the AJAX backend should be already 
aware of permission.

Thank you for feedback :)
