Well, I've been working with it for some time and am still confused as 
to how to do simple things like set variables properly, cast data
types (ie, string to a date, etc.), and why variables sometimes
disappear.  Also the syntax is a little strange (I can't figure out
how to embed a quation mark inside a string passed to a function in
dtml-call), so the learning curve is not exactly great, but otherwise, 
I really like it.  The documentation is rather sparse, which hurts
more than it otherwise would.  Perhaps if I knew Python, it would be a 
bit better?

This is from someone that has extensive experience with programming
and does Perl and CGI for a living, so...
