Well, Deco works on a different level - it's about editing/generating/ 
managing content. You can edit the static content via Django's admin  
interface - similarly to django.contrib.flatpages. For example you  
could generate an "about" page for the site, or a sidebar for each  
page, using Deco. StaticGenerator could be used after Deco renders the  
page, to improve speed.
