Not surprising. Was not even familiar with the library until I saw the link in these threads to the Github wiki page for ChicagoBoss mentioning features and I saw ErlyDTL, and went to evanmiller's page.

I dug a little deeper because having used Django in a very small does years ago, I have no idea what made its templating so desirable or unique that over stacks copy it.

I assume up on deck: queue jokes about templating non-Erlang in Erlang and how people clamor for anything else.
