If you are already thinking of creating the XML yourself, TG2 is perfectly fine. Just decorate with the proper content-type, and return it. However, may I suggest using Genshi instead of pure ElementTree? It's much easier to the eye, and we simply produced templates out of sniffed client-server-communication that we then dynamized. Of course we were in an inverse position to you, but if you can generate a mock-server with e.g. apache axis, you should be good.
