If considering Mason as a templating language for Catalyst, it's worth
looking at Text::MicroMason (and Catalyst::View::MicroMason). _Almost_ the
same syntax as HTML::Mason but fewer prerequisites (in particular not
requiring mod_perl) which makes installs for developers a bit easier. The
main downside is Text::MicroMason's current habit of only reporting syntax
errors with line numbers from the generated Perl version of the template.

If you do use Catalyst::View::MicroMason you probably want the current
developer version (0.04_01) which fixes problems working with config
files.
