(The Savant3 pages are lamentably lacking, with only a home page, but that should change as I move it closer to a stable release.)</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://phpsavant.com/\">Savant</a> is a lightweight, object-oriented template system for PHP.  I call it the simple, elegant, and powerful alternative to Smarty.  Savant2 was written for PHP4; while it works with PHP5 out of the box, it is not E_STRICT compliant.  <a href=\"http://phpsavant.com/yawiki/index.php?area=Savant3\">Savant3</a> *is* E_STRICT compliant, sports a nicer plugin system using __call() magic, and comes with a modified set of default plugins.</p>\n"
