Does this affect Chris's chances in the annual "Zope Cogeniality
Awards"? <br>
BTW DTML does not suck. I too have written lots of code w/it. I do
find ZPT to be preferable - but it does take effort (brain re-wiring)
and if your up to your elbows in alligators its just not the time to
convert.<br>
<br>
I waited for the next project to go all ZPT (except with some CSS
handling).<br>
I'm waiting for my next project to go all Zope 3 and I can't wait. :-)<br>
<br>
All best,<br>

I appreciate the amount of effort that you contribute to the
community... but that said... you really are quite rude and
obnoxious.... hence the "Go easy" warning.<br>

Your skills in dealing with people pale in comparison to your Zope
prowess. </font></font><font size="-1"><font face="Verdana"> Talking

If you need to be right that badly, have at it.... You're right, DTML
sucks, ZPT and whatever else is the obvious solution... my issue is
solved... thank you so much for your time.<br>

I do not wish to mix ZPT and DTML in my project... I had chosen DTML,
before ZPT was mature... It may be better, but I don't care for now...
when I'm able to re-assess which pieces of Zope to use in a future
project, I may well choose it. <br>

Uh, no, as a professional programmer, I use the best tools for the job,
and don't stand by mistakes I made before, like choosing DTML,
