If a project is using non-techie designers, then the best thing for that 
project would to use an IDE that has its own templating system. Which is 
the other great thing about Freemarker/Velocity, it works with 
everything right out of the box.

But, if you've got guys like us doing the HTML too, then XSL is an 
excellent option. And with development tools like Maven and Forrest 
floating around, it's often a familiar option as well.
