Freddy,

Thanks for the reply and as you have used Velocity so much I would love to hear:
--> At least 3 "specific" "key" reasons why "their choice" of templating engine was selected over JSPs and built-in TLDs?

I don't just want to hear "I use templating engine X which is great for me" OR "because its better" OR the "best templating engine is X"... .

I honestly want to hear real CONCRETE issues that "JSPs and built-in TLDs could not adequately solve" OR "where better solved by templating engine X" and "moreover" WHY - in the context of large software project development (and as far as large is concerned consider multi-server multi-instance LB'ed 3/4-Tier deployment)?
Thanks,

--Nikolaos

I picked up Velocity, and mind I've been using it off and on since

convince them that Velocity was a better choice than rolling our
own.

+1 for Velocity. I've used it a lot over the years and more recently I
beat the crap out of it, using and abusing it for purposes that were
never in its job description, and it responded like a champ without
complaining.

The most recent release is May 2010 so fear not about it being
actively maintained.

Cheers,
Freddy
