Almost any other templating system would be better here as tempita is
unmaintained.  Any of Mako, Jinja2 or Chameleon would work; each is Py3
compat.

If it's only about creating Pyramid scaffolding, Pyramid now has code
generation facilities built in to it.  See

FormEncode has picked up a maintainer, so this is probably safe.
Although I don't think it's Py3 compat, not sure if that's on the radar.

Haven't used it.
