Looks like CTemplate really does not fit FOW. I’m not going to drop it completely (as I’ve already have basic support for it), but I’m going to make more flexible template system available.
Currently I have an idea of building “pre-compiled” tree of plist-like structure. That seems to be pretty fast and there’s a great possibility [...]

I’m not really surprised to see such a big number of different RPC protocols, however it’s nice to see there are some standard ones, like Metaweblog API.
Going web is not the way I [...]
