Hello Patrick,

thank you for publishing your first draft of a concept. The schema already
looks very detailed odered and clearn. I suggest to add another row that
answers the question of motivation for each column.

For each column you should give an answer to the question: What motivates
poeple to do this?

I give a maximum of 6 points for estimatied motivation (M).
I give a maximum of 6 points for estimatied complexity (C).

Only if the motivation is as high as the complexity the concept can be
successfull.

* Feature specifications (C:3)
** Developers want to make their extension successfull. (M:5) => works well

* T3 user rating: (C:1)
** Users want to express their annoyance or ecstasy (M:4) => works well

* T3 user reviews: (C:3)
** Users want to share their knowlage (M:3) => works partly
*** Additional motivation should be given. Which?

* Security reviews: (C:5)
** Power to make extensions "officially supported": (M:3) => works hardly
** Money be the association: (M:6) => works well
