This is OT, but I've been planning to do the same, as an alternative to 
parse. A very nice aspect of Velocity is that its not hard to write 
valid XHTML templates. Unless, of course, you are slicing and dicing 
them with parse =:(

So, once I get through a pass on the latest set of pages in my lead 
application, I'd like to go back and try assembling them using XSL, to 
get most of the benefits of parse (or Tiles), without loosing valid 
XHMTL file or paying a runtime penalty.
