[TYPO3-ect] Just another gallery extension :-)

[Jan-Hendrik Heuing]

Hello...

We might provide a webdav interface for DAM, that would be a good extension to that "new" gallery extension...

We'll be working on that until mid-december project related. For publishing we need to generalize parts of it, but that's not too much work I guess.

> 
> - Different install/configuration modes varying from simple

> - Upload of images by FTP or web form
> - Easy/automatic (re-)indexing of images/image folders
> - Simple adding of titles and descriptions to galleries
>    and pictures
> - Full multi-language support for labels, gallery and
>    picture titles and descriptions
> - Backend maintenance with tree view and light box
> - Compact db-structure which can easily be extended
> - Generous providing of hooks
> - Flexible configuration of the frontend output
>    via template file and TS (maybe an extendable array
>    of views)
> - Full support of RealUrl
> - Possible extensions: commenting system, shopping cart,
>    zipped download, ...

> Before I start this project on my own or ask you for help on the
