I think it was developed separately from ACS4. It does not require a
database, so I think the whole thing is a tcl module. It is under
/web/servername/packages/acs-templating/.
I have heard others complain that templating had some problems with
variable scope, but I have not run into any problems.
I worked with the 'form' tag just enough to realize it would not work
for what I was doing, but it seems to be relatively flexable, and should
be great for most purposes. I even added a few of my own widgets:
'static' and 'img'.
Since everything is put into the form via the 'template::element create'
method, you can script the arguments. It seems like it would be useful
for a meta-data system.
