I'll take a moment in this thread to plug Albatross (http://www.object-craft.com.au/projects/albatross/) as the "killer" template system for python, or at least a strong contender. It doesn't look like PHP, it's far from any perl package; it solves the template/state problem in a very python way. Documentation is there, but it's currently getting a rewrite for clarity (which most agree it needs). Docs aside, within a day I had it running with mod_python and in 3 days extended the framework with a custom tag; and I was also learning python at the same time. If you are open to see there might be a better way to do things, you can find python very helpful. If you're looking to use the same "perl logic" or PHP that you always have, python will go against the grain with you. It's really not that much different than C programmer moving to C++; the syntax change is deceptively simple and hide the real differences. Mike
