Yeah, sure. Hopefully it can be resolved. But you can create an awful lot of useful applications without this ability. :) Anyway, it's nice to see that we may have a tutorial on BFG-on-GAE soon. I'd love to be able to use TAL, though. Django templates give me a headache. ;) Martin -- Author of `Professional Plone Development`, a book for developers who want to work with Plone.
