[TYPO3-hci] HCI Podcast

Yeah, that would be awesome to view a tree of data for all tree-like things ;)

Actually, the Commerce extension works like this - you get to see categories and products in a tree. I think the greytree extension makes that possible.

I'm currently working on the "Page" Tree ...
I already added the Idea of more Views.
Everything witch could be Viewed in a Tree should get this View.
Like: News Cat., Forum structure, Loging ...

Would be soooo cool :)
