Hello David,

As I remember you did everything right, and dividing in some packages is 
good.

So I think developers who read the concept got lost in the fear that 
their efforts would not help.

=> we need a database for projects, that helps new developers to find a 
good task they can do to contribute in a project. Should be RSS with 
categories so that it's easy to integrate into www.typo3.org - I think 
I'll add that as a feature to the new documentation portal. So that's 
"project-management-documentation"

Cheers!
Daniel
