Search back through the mailing list and you'll find that I originally argued the same thing :) But in practice, provided conventions are adhered to, this way actually works quite well. It's simple and unmagical (all template directories behave exactly the same way) and has been employed at LJWorld.com (birthplace of Django) successfully for a long time. What does need more clarification in the documentation are the conventions used for writing Django apps, but this really has to wait for the APIs to settle with the upcoming 1.0 release. Kieran
