The Velocity, WebMacro, Smarty and Mason projects provided inspiration and
design ideas. Cheetah has benefited from the creativity and energy of their
developers. Thank you.
On a historical note, Cheetah is one of several templating frameworks that
grew out of a "templates" thread on the Webware for Python email list.
