The release of Cheetah v2.2.0 is a milestone for Cheetah development, despite containing a relatively low number of changes. With Cheetah v2.2.0, all internal buffers used by the conpiler are now stored and maintained as unicode objects, instead of strings of variable encodings.
This is the first step in preparing Cheetah for the eventual jump to support Python 3.xx but also resolves a number of longstanding issues with Cheetah's internationalization support.
Enjoy :)

It's been a while since the last SourceForge release of Cheetah, and v2.1.2 is the culmination of the recent rebirth of the Cheetah Template Engine.
Included is Python 2.6 support, bugfixes and a number of small new features

Cheetah is a Python-powered template engine and code generator. It can be used standalone or combined with other tools and frameworks. Web development is its principle use, but Cheetah is very flexible and is also being used to generate C++ game code, Java, sql, form emails and even Python code.
Cheetah has a large and active user community. Products built with Cheetah are used by most of the Fortune 500. One prominent new user is reddit.com, a startup funded by Paul Graham.

We've made the system much more flexible, added a ton of new features, and fixed several old annoyances. Click the link above to see the full details in the release notes.
"I'm enamored with Cheetah" - Sam Ruby
"Give Cheetah a try. You won't regret it." - Alex Martelli (Google)
"Cheetah is a truly powerful system" - Alex Martelli (Google)
"Cheetah is a serious contender for the 'best of breed' Python templating" - Alex Martelli (Google)
"People with a strong PHP background absolutely love Cheetah for being Smarty, but much, much better." - Marek Baczynski
"I am using Smarty and I know it very well, but compiled Cheetah Templates with its inheritance approach is much powerful and easier to use than Smarty." - Jarosław Zabiełło
"There is no better solution than Cheetah" - Wilk
"A cheetah template can inherit from a python class, or a cheetah template, and a Python class can inherit from a cheetah template. This brings the full power of OO programming facilities to the templating system, and simply blows away other templating systems" - Mike Meyer
"Cheetah has successfully been introduced as a replacement for the overweight XSL Templates for code generation. Despite the power of XSL (and notably XPath expressions), code generation is better suited to Cheetah as templates are much easier to implement and manage." - The FEAR development team (http://fear.sourceforge.net/docs/latest/guide/Build.html#id2550573)
