Hi... I would suggest using some templates for each required format of output. At work, in which we are using Python on daily bases :), we are using Cheetah [1]. But I also found [2] in which they claim they are lighter than [1].
Sebb... I already showed interest joining enhancing and CMSing the incubator site, I was away on a business trip and now I want to start doing something, but I am not totally aware yet of where or what I can help in, any hints :) ?
