[TYPO3-ect] lib/div developer

Hi Søren,

sounds interesting, but I don't have the time for it - sorry. Just 
wanted to give some feedback.

As for the category problem you described in your concept - I think the 
upcoming tx_categories from Mads Brunn is THE category extension for 
this. And if you still prefer using pages as categories (to be able to 
add additional content per category) you can still setup a pagetree, 
assign categories to the pages (which is possible with tx_categories by 
default), place a TS in the root of your link directory pagetree which 
adds the link-extension automatically to the end of each page - and 
you're done. The link-extension then only has to have a option, to 
automatically display links based on the categories that are assigned to 
the current page. By thinking of that - this offers a lot of nice 
features for other extensions, too (some kind of TYPO3-adsense, adapting 
short-news,...).
