Most people would say it's not a selling point, but damnit no logic is
the best. It's REAL MVC. I have 10 templates, with 1 backend to run
them all. If that's not amazing to the people, they'll never see the

P.S. Push the no logic, the good ones will see the light.
Interesting philosophical exercise, I doubt it'll put much weight in
when trying to defend our templates to other people. It's easy to
state that frameworks might have several points of ugliness and that
the templates could just be one of them, indicating that a lot of
other things are 'as

Thanks for the input Oliver,
I tell this most of the time and sadly people just nod and move
along, still thinking it looks like crap.

Right, I've had several people say that they just use SiteMesh for this.

Thanks Eddy,
the syntax benefit is what I often bring forward, but it
somehow never provides enough weight. They point to Tapestry and
Wicket as another way of doing it invisibly. When I explain that the
templates in RIFE are not limited to XML documents and that they are
used for any te
