Give me some time (a week or two) to finish a current deadline. Meanwhile
I'll try to get started with texen/torque/velocity so that at least I'm
able to correctly use the words ;-)
Once I know better what I'm talking about and of course see what's already
there I will try to replace the existing xsl scripts (the ones in the
proposal aren't up to date anymore :). This should function as a first
"template programming lesson" and I'd be happy to share the results and
get pointed out poor use of concepts etc.
After that I should be up to speed to discuss matters with more "substance".
Best,
Michael
