On the 17th we had a DAM meeting again. Goal of the meeting was to make DAM compatible with TYPO3 version 4.5 LTS. Main decision was that we have a release of DAM 1.1.8 on January 23rd, followed by 1.2.0 on January 26th at the same time the LTS version is published. We also decided to speed up the review process to get changes in faster. The protocol of the meeting can be found on the DAM team's Forge page. The coming versions will hold many bugfixes. We also discussed DAM after 1.2, which will mainly focus on interface and usability changes.
In the meantime we encourage you to test DAM and report issues. There are many extensions based on DAM and we are sure those developers can also contribute to DAM. For questions please go to the DAM mailinglists on lists.typo3.org with your news reader.
