Here's the quick summary: The senior techie MediaWiki people (Brion
Vibber, Tim Starling et al) are discussing alternatives to the current
ad-hoc templating language, including Python, PHP, Lua and server side
JavaScript. No decisions have been made, and nothing may eventuate,
but with Brion's support, something is sure to happen.
The thread is "On templates and programming languages" on Wikitech-L.
