Re^3: Yet Another Templating System

What are the odds that someone with the explicit design goal of avoiding any non-core modules will write a templating system half as capable as the Template Toolkit in less than a year?

In my opinion, they're negligable.

That doesn't exactly defend to Anonymous Monks rant. Maybe it is justified and maybe its not. Maybe this guys template system is great, maybe it sucks. To just bash him like that and say that all the systems he had seen in the past, so all the ones he will see in the future will suck too, is just crazy so I felt like having a little laugh. Don't crush new peoples dreams just because you've never seen anyone do what they want to do succesfully. We can dream a little can't we? And realistic dreams arn't near as much fun are they? ___________ Eric Hodges	[reply]
