just another side note: Some developers work also very hard, to make the
CMS easier and simpler, with every version.

Just a stupid example: You insert a normal plugin in page module and you
get this stupid "CODE:" which tells you nothing? This is gone in 4.7. I
did that for you and all of the other TYPO3 users. For free ;)

what is this so called cloud? It is just a matter of hosting. There are
already TYPO3 agencies which provide that for you, having 10 webservers
with a little click and 100 servers doing something for you in the cloud.

TYPO3 is a CMS or web framework, it is not a solution itself. TYPO3 can
of course be used to create a solution which lives in the cloud. TYPO3
can be used to create awesome catalogs in combination with Adobe
Indesign Severs, can produce the XML for Iphone Apps but it is not an
iphone app itself.

What is TS? It is ajust a configuration "language". You will always need
a configuration language. TS will get easier and more fun with v5 but as
said: TYPO3 is IMO primarly a tool to create awesome solutions but you
wil still aways need your brain and a bit more than a finger click
