DTML is still very useful if we make non-xml stuff like SQL, CSS, JavaScript
etc. And I have used it in many real projects for about 7 years. If there is
something(online document?) which make new users confused, it would be better
to fix it. ZPT is useful to generate xml/html documents, DTML is useful to
generate non-xml documents.
