CeBIT Open Source 2011 - Project Presentation TYPO3
ByDuring CeBIT 2011 open source projects such as TYPO3, open-source content management system, will have the opportunity to showcase what is currently in active development.

TYPO3’s development was started from scratch by Kasper Skårhøj in 1997.
How many active members does the project have?

Why was the project created?
Customers needed a tool to maintain their third generation website without messing up the design.
Why should a CeBIT visitor come to your booth?

Who do you make your software for?
Our mission is “Jointly innovate free software enabling people to communicate”
Where do you see your biggest current challenges?
We have to improve our marketing and organisation.
