The first step on the road to killing BML

I've recently written a guide on Routing and Template Toolkit, which is the system that's going to be replacing BML. As is, the guide is probably only suitable for people who already know their way around the code fairly well, but it's a start to understanding the system if that's what you're interested in.

If you have questions, ask them here, so we can determine if they have answers that should be added to the guide or need solutions developed.

Learning this is especially relevant if you're doing anything that involves significantly revamping a given page, or creating a new page! It'd be better if it could be translated to this system instead of being done in BML.

For implementing filters, have you seen the implementation of ml in DW::Template::Apache2 yet? I was just poking around there for stuff I'm doing and realized that that part was already a dynamic filter(doh).

I was going to point you to the HTML plugin and then I realized that was still escaping and not stripping, so eh.
