[TYPO3-ttnews] Display selected articles

[Klaus Brinch]

Hi all

I have a scenario where i would like to pick a number of news articles 
in the backend to show in the front-end, independent of categories.

Now i can select Latest, List, Archive or Single view but i cant pick 
the news articles i want to display from, say, a list in the backend.

I know i can do it with insert records but that is not very elegant. Am 
i missing something obvious here; this seems to me to be an important 
feature in a news-module, but how?

Kind Regards
Klaus
