Christian Wyglendowski and I have been talking about the overlap between Buffet (his CherryPy template filter) and TurboGears' template plugin support. What we've ended up with is a slightly modified interface that allows Buffet and TurboGears to use the same plugins for rendering templates. Even better, these plugins have no ties at all to TurboGears, Buffet or CherryPy. They can be used by anyone who wants to support multiple template engine rendering based on a dict.
The next commit I do (it looks like 459) is going to: 1) break out Kid into a plugin that is listed in install_requires 2) break existing template plugins 3) include a revision to TurboCheetah to fix it The authors of the Stan and ZPT plugins are aware that this change is coming. If you're currently using one of these plugins, you'll want to hold off on updating past 458 until there is an update. (I'm sure the authors of those plugins would be happy to have a patch to fix the plugin... it's a fairly minor change that mostly revolves around breaking the ties to turbogears and cherrypy.)
