Great work, Philip (and a Thomas, Vincent and Cédric)!

One question that I think deserves some thought:

Should we be aiming a one versatile mr.bob template (with 1 and 2 namespace
options), or multiple for different purposes like diazo theme, dexterity
content types, ... on the model of the old ZopeSkel/Templer packages?

One versatile package pros and cons:

pros

Since mr.bob doesn't have good facilities for sharing base skeletons (the
great strength of ZopeSkel/Templer), having one base template reduces
duplicate code.

cons

Right from the start, this is a lot of questions. It will get worse when we
add functionality like dexterity examples. And questions that are
meaningful to someone doing theming may be mysterious to someone adding
content types.

Using one base template may encourage folks to mix a lot of concerns in a
single package.
