chris,

your statement about the future of DTML is incorrect.

DTML support will be retained and even improved in the future. the 
difference in DTML- and ZPT-support is simply how much time we are spending 
on it. more time is going into ZPT because we use it more extensively 
internally and the take-up in the community seems to indicate the same is 
true for a large part of zope developers out there.

devshed is not lazy and out of date for publishing an article about DTML. 
DTML is as valid and future-proof a templating system for zope as ZPT is.
