you people are crazy! It took me five hours to update all my extensions, but 
nothing worked after that! In addition the attached shellscript wiped my 
harddisc and all may backups are not usable any more!!!

If this change is going into core, I will not use TYPO3, TYPO4 (or whatever you 
name this lazy product) any more. Instead I will code my own CMS in the next few 
days and sell it as closed source, so that I will make much money and keep all 
fame for myself instead of sharing anything!!!!!

so long
