ahh, since the spec only says it "should" be percent encoded, you're
right.. we chould check for this. Michael, you should update the
python library to check for both encoded and non-encoded templates

sounds good, see note below about the website.

eh? it looks awful right now :) They're talking about EAUT at OSCON
this week, so I wanted to get the bare minimum up there as quick as
possible. It's needs some serious love, so if anyone is up for the
challenge, go for it. Just checkin everything to the 'website' folder
in SVN, and I'll pull it down on the eaut.org server. Down the road,
we may want to throw a real CMS (drupal, wordpress, whatever) behind
it... not sure.

Ahh....I just noticed that, too.  I would vote for "MUST" language instead, but still have implementations do the check.  Can anyone think of a good reason to use "SHOULD" here?

LOL - That's hllarious!!  Lest you all think I have no sense of style, I should clarify that I was thinking it looks great compared to what was up there before (two hyperlinks), but you're right -- it would be awesome to make it look pretty.  :)

just realized the spec already says they MUST be encoded (section
5.1). The "should" I saw was talking about *decoding* the template.
It says that you "should" decode the template (in order to change them
back to regular braces), and then do replacement. I'll update the php
library in just a second. my bad, guys... the spec is fine as written.
