I think it is too premature to be moving the DTML chapters out of the
book:  if we arent just updating the book to be current with 2.12, then
we probably need to discuss what kind of book we want, before chopping
it apart.

At the moment, the book is largely a guide to what can be done with Zope
TTW.  DTML is still part of that store: it isn't gone, nor even
deprecated:  its just that most core developers prefer not to use it in
most cases.  Note that there is still no replacement for DTML for at
least one major TTW use case (SQL methods).

Rewriting the "when to use ZPT vs. DTML bits, and making them more
prominent earlier in the book, would be a sensible change.
