* in the first case, once you include the template the Velocity macros become available globally, for the entire farm, even with a different skin * in the second case, the Velocity macros are not visible in the including template/wiki page Since this cod is pretty old it's quite tricky to fix. Thomas suggested to use instead of '' and template name the current namespace so that #template behaves like a real include (e.g. like the include macro). WDYT?
