There is now also Jinja [1], which is similar to the template language Django uses, but can be used stand-alone. I haven't used it yet, but judging from the docs it looks very promising. I use Cheetah a lot, but I must say that it has a few quirks/bugs when used in its standard configuration, and development could be a little faster. But I much prefer it to XML-based template languages like Kid [2] or Genshi [3] though. You can use both Cheetah and Jinja with TurboGears [4], though the coolest part of TG, the widget system, currently only works well with Kid (but this is about to change soon).
