From March 21 -24 we dedicated another sprint to typo3.org. There is a solid core of people present every time at these typo3.org sprints and we have found a comfortable mode working on typo3.org since the relaunch one year ago almost to this day.

Here we go again! We’re planning the next TYPO3 Extbase Team code sprint and we’re looking for participants, helpers and sponsors. Everyone who’s…

It was the first TYPO3camp this year and the first TYPO3camp in the Netherlands, ever, taking place this weekend in Venlo. Close to the German and Belgian border it brought a lot of attendants from both countries. Besides that the Romanian presence really gave the event, with 86 attendants, an international feel.

Later than usual we announce the TYPO3 Developer Days for this year. Fetch your calendars as they will be held from July 4th to July 7th in Hamburg. The concept for the TYPO3 Developer Days is going towards tutorials in combination with workshops and we are looking forward to “get things done”.

At the beginning of 2013 the Expert Advisory Board decided about the budget and gave an explanation about the allocation of the budgets for 2013.

A solution was found by allocating budget to work-packages that will drive the development of TYPO3 Neos.

For the past week some 70 TYPO3 enthusiasts met in Zell am See in Austria for the TYPO3 Snowboard tour. On the 2000 meter high Schmittenhöhe there was plenty of snow accompanied by some exciting presentations. Jan Christe of T3N magazine gives some insights into the community event.

Although the migration of the TYPO3 CMS documentation to ReStructured Text cannot be considered fully complete, the convergence with Neos and Flow has become reality.
