When i started looking at Nukes a few months ago and wanted to quickly see how to create my own module, the template module was very helpful. It gives a quick & easy introduction to .tpl template files, basic module operations, and i18n resource files. I've heard talk that Nukes will be moving away from tpl files and towards jsp as the display. Also, there's a big push towards pure-CMP for backend data. It would be nice if we could update the template module to include the latest trends. Of course since I'm still new to this, when i say "we could update..." i have to mean someone other than "me".
