While I admit that I need to look deeper, Tea already has two strikes
against it in my book:
Strike 1:
From the web site: "Tea is a strongly typed, compiled programming
language, designed to work within a Java-based hosting environment."
Note: Further reading reveals that Tea executes within the Java VM.
Strike 2:
From the User Manual:
"Tea is a template language with a simple syntax, which supports the
notions of having code inside an ordinary html page, like an ASP".
Note: In my opinion, any significant amount of code within the HTML page
is a recipe for a maintenance nightmare.
OK, somebody please convince me that I should look deeper. The Walt
Disney group is a world-class group-- if this were from anybody else I
would immediately deep-six it without further investigation.
