I just want to inform you, that I am officially inactive as TYPO3 core developer. This status is not brand new, I just forgot to write about it here.

Because I got some feedback already I want to make clear, that I'm not leaving the project. I just decided to move a little bit away from core development and do some more organizational stuff instead.

TYPO3 Developer Days coming closer and I'm pretty sure there will some other things to do in the future. :-)

Greets,

I just uploaded the API documentation for TYPO3 version 4.3.3 and 4.4.0beta2. You can find them for online reading at the usual places. The download version is only available for 4.3.3 now.

I'm sorry about that. If you have anything to tell me feel free to contact via the default communication systems. :-)

He planned a meeting with designers, developers and managers to work focused on usability tasks. The event should be free for all attendees and it was limited to 30 people. Now this vision becomes reality. From November 14th till November 21st a jury will elect a team of 30 people you will hopefully make the vision not only a reality but also a success.

I already applied for the event and I hope I get selected for it. Not because it's free but because it's a very important task that was disregarded the last years.

If you want to get more information on the project check out http://t3uxw09.typo3.org. Don't forget to send your application for the job if you think you can bring it forward.

There are still some tasks to fulfill like integrating new technologies from the current TYPO3 trunk and so we give us another month to reach our first official milestone "Alpha 1".

The due date is October 30th where we will release a first official package that can be used for testing without checking out any subversion sources. This date will also set the mark for the final run towards version 1.0.

We currently plan to release an alpha version every two weeks until the source is ready for being beta which will have a release every week. We don't think that there will be more than 3 betas due to the fact, that the beta phase is dedicated to bugfixing. This also intends, that the features freeze will be set to version "Beta 1".

When everything works out as expected we hope to release version 1.0 in the TER by end of the year.

Unfortunately it was not really possible to reconnect the server to the world wide web without disturbing other bigger internal networks and so I had to wait.

I will try to find a solution how this can be avoided in the future. Maybe I extract the TYPO3 API docs from this page and host it separately on another machine. We will see. In the mean time I will try to convert this blog to another system (I thought of Wordpress) to make blogging more convenient. (Just another try to don't let this page die. ^^)

Answering all questions will take 5 to 10 minutes and I think it's worth it because it helps us to make it even better next year! You can find the survey here: http://t3dd09.typo3.org/survey0.html

Well, most people would think "No problem change the shortcut". Yeah, nice idea but it took me some time to figure out which shortcut I have to change. To save you some minutes here is the answer. The shortcut you have to change is called "Content Assist" and not "Template" as you might think. ^^

The data will be transfered to another machine today, so it will be offline for a few minutes today. I hope we can solve the problems asap.
