[Zope] (CMF == ZPT) && (Elvis lives && DTML is dead)

[Wilson, Derek]

I think by the wording "depreciated" it means that no further
development would happen with DTML and it seems as though eventually
DTML support would be dropped in favor of having a more efficient TAL
syntax. So, is that the case? Is DTML no longer supported? Any plans to
drop it from Zope?


Thanks,
Derek Wilson

That's putting it a bit strongly. Many of us prefer ZPT to DTML for most
purposes, but some have the opposite preference. DTML is not deprecated
in any official way.

however, good point - the tutorial could use an overhaul.
Maybe for zope 2.8 or 2.7.1 (it's probably too late to tackle for zope
2.7.0).
