[TYPO3-mvc] extbase_pager usage.

[Jonas Dübi]

Hi

sorry, that we didn't find the time to answer you.

Please add questions and issues to 
http://forge.typo3.org/projects/extension-extbase_pager/issues

That's very important for the project!

I'll ask Nils if he finds the time to help you.

Best regards,
Jonas
