I'm please to announce that work on version 3 of the Template Toolkit has begun!
Our excellent friends at Fotango[1] are employing me for the next few months to work full-time on completing the design and implementation of TT3. I've been working on it on-and-off for more than 2 years and I've got various bits of code strewn about in different locations. One of my first tasks will be to pull all that together and get some code checked into the all-new CVS repository. One of my other first tasks will be to firm up the design in terms of changes to the internal architecture and the template language itself. Again, this is something that I've been thinking about for a while, and I've even given a couple of talks[2] about what changes I might make. But nothing is set in stone (yet), and I welcome input from everyone on this. I've created a new mailing list for the discussion of TT3. http://www.template-toolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/tt3 I'll be writing a series of design documents and posting them to this list for general discussion, comments, etc., but you don't have to wait for me. If anyone else wants to write design documents, proposals, lists of most annoying mis-features, or whatever, then please go ahead. There's also a web site (well, a web page) for TT3: http://tt3.template-toolkit.org/ # either/or http://template-toolkit.org/tt3/ # take your pick This page has links to the CVS repository (currently just containing a placeholder file) and the mailing list. It'll be updated throughout the next few months to contain all the latest information as it happens. Enjoy!
