Ah! Right. Well, I tried Staticmatic and have earmarked it to quickly do the prototype so I can make the team aware of the Product and get them a head-start with the project. I'm pretty comfortable with Staticmatic at this stage.
However, the issue that I cannot integrate it as a module inside the Python environment is something that I wanted to overcome. And the prospect is looking bleak. (Compass + Sass is a bliss on the other-hand.) Our team do write HTML flawlessly. Its just that I want to cut time and scratch my lazy itches. Not to worry at all. Will keep a lookout for a solution. The thing is, I'm more into products, UI interaction and Usability. Talked to my Python team about writing a module to parse HAML, I get the response, "Haml is unlike the Python philosophy." Duh! I might have missed something but I'm yet to figure out why Philosophy creeps in when I want to just get things done.
