This would be great, as long as you could figure out how to make it
backwards compatible. Thanks for volunteering! :-)

Here are some broad goals/thoughts, IMHO:

* Users of Django the framework should not be affected in any way.

* Ideally we should not have to maintain two versions of the codebase.

* Figuring out the settings stuff could be tricky.

* Consider the case of people who download and use the standalone
template system, then decide to install the whole framework. It would
be nice (but not essential) if they didn't have to have conflicting
versions of the template library installed on their systems. I don't
know anything about the way Twisted modules are distributed (which is
what you alluded to) -- do they have a nice way of solving this
problem?
