I never said he HAS to convert his DTML to ZPT.

For me however, Once I found ZPT (they happened during a time when I
took about a year off from anything zope related) I never looked back to
DTML. DTML was always *wrong* as far as I was concerned. ZPT is much
cleaner, breaks less editors, helps enforce the separation of logic and
presentation, etc.

But that's just me. If it were my site I would refactor the DTML parts
into ZPT/Python Scripts (and maybe a few products) over time.

Again, that's just me.
