The problems that show up are generally related to one root cause.  I
have done some preliminary work investigating the solution, but didn't
want to do anything until after release 1.0.  It's a biggie.

I have a client where quite a few in Vel, converted from WM (I don't
know the count).

I have another who produces all content dymically via XML/XSLT, and are
able to use Velocity parsing of dynamically generated streams in
realtime - there isn't even templates that we can check for
'correctness' for the most part.  There are a few top level ones, but
the rest is dynamic - I have VTL embedded in XSL, even, for the parts we
haven't converted to Anakia-like XML styling. :)

All works like a charm.

I base part of my living and reputation as a consultant on it these
days...

We'd love to see you use Velocity, and are anxious how it will work for
you.
