I sometimes get questions: when an updated version of XYZ extension will be released? I decided to answer here.

At the moment I maintain several more or less popular extensions:

• templavoila
• realurl
• mininews
• mnogosearch
• adndreas01
• andreas09
• t3faces

I try to updated them, fix bugs, add new features as quickly as I can but there is a lot of other TYPO3-related work around and I cannot say exactly when new version will be released. I have lots of ideas (some of them in the TYPO3 bug tracker) but I do not have much time to implement them all. For example, now 90% of my time goes for work for customers. I am happy if customer needs new features or bug fixes for these extensions because result is automatically shared with community. When I have spare time, I work on extensions and TYPO3 core. I try to arrange my work so that I always have some time to dedicate to extensions and core. I feel responsibility to do it. But I still cannot say exactly when particular version of the extension will be released.

Do I like that? Not really. But this is what life is. I still would like to maintain these extension because I know them very well and have ideas for their expansion. I appreciate any help (such as patches in bug tracker, ideas, donations, sponsored work). I will continue working on thse extensions. Soon I will release new RealURL (see next post about it). Than mnoGoSearch and TemplaVoila. It will be done. Soon.
