Definitively I used Freemarker much more in the past than currently,
but Web development has changed a lot, moving more stuff to the
frontend (10 years ago we didn't have AngularJS).
Yip, that's why I intend to focus on non-Web applications much more in
FM 3. There are some interesting challenges there. One is the common
need for the much smarter handling of white-space. Another is entering
templates in WYSIWYG editors (it has some tricky aspects). Would be
fun to work on those instead of fighting with FM 2 legacy.

Most of my involvement is from a user perspective and I really haven't
used much template stuff in a while but in the past 4 years have worked
with Liferay portal and they use both Velocity and Freemarker and have
recently shifted more to Freemarker. So after being out of the template
arena for a while, I am back in.
My Java skills aren't nearly at the level the rest of the group on this
list has but I will try to jump in on the stuff that can fit my skill level.
