greater flexibility does make it easier to make mistakes. doesn't mean that forcing you to use xml necessarily better.
as a rule if you need to output anything but html i would use make. if you won't then use genshi. genshi is plenty fast. it would be nice if non-xml templating systems had an xml mode. -brandon On Aug 23, 10:07 am, "Neil Blakey-Milner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 8/22/07, Mike Lewis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I'm starting a new project that will hopefully be used by a lot of > > users eventually, so performance is necessary.
