I strongly agree.

I remember I have had deep regrets last year when I noticed that the form 
object sponsorings where over, without anybody organizing it trying to 
contact people like me, people who spend continuously hours and hours of 
spare time each week, and this for years, to build such a form-fwk. I'm 
talking here about project Formidable.

Anyway, this is the past. We still would like the core team to consider our 
work, as we are devoted to TYPO3 and it's community for the love of it. And 
by We I mean me (Jerome Schneider) and the community supporting the project.

You may contact me anytime if you think that what we're offering could be of 
any use for the core.

For the best,
Jerome Schneider
