Olivier,
Was this breakage in TurboStan or Buffet? TurboStan uses eval() but it
should be self-contained (it's only used to evaluate the Stan
expression, and then within its own namespace).
If you do use TurboStan with Buffet/CP, I'd like to hear about your
experiences and any issues you may run into. I'd also be interested in
feedback and suggestions/criticisms from people actually using Stan to
help steer development on it. Some of the things I'm going to be
considering next are caching of compiled templates, using widgets from
Stan, and maybe even implementing a widget or two in Stan, just as a
proof-of-concept if nothing else.
