Yes, I actually don't want to replace Genshi at all, I like it but I'm afraid we won't get the new release any time soon. As I'm unable to take over the effort of maintaining genshi and the codebase looks quite complex the only alternative I have been able to think of is switching to Kajiki which seems to have an easier codebase ( I have been able to provide pull requests for it in the past ).
