I wouldn't go that far - the author (if it's indeed a one-man-show, couldn't find it) is quite persistent (it's been around for more than 2 years). It's not tied to the servlet api afaik (see the faq), and the lack of headers/expression language is not thát important. Patrick was only suggesting this for the WW tags, not as an additional Result (but it would be trivial to add this). That's why I'm only really interested in the performance, since that's where it would matter. But like I said on the Jira; if you copy the templates to your webapp root, Freemarker can fully use its cache. Works like a charm, but it's too bad it's not an 'out of the box' solution.
