Yes, I've use HT before I switched to HT::Compiled.

I don't miss any features of HT! And HTC implemented nearly every
feature of HT and added some new features.

I extensively use the dynamic includes. This reduces the number of
templates significantly.

The "SWITCH" tag is another great thing. Sometimes it is too long winded
to do the switch on the Perl side...

The only feature that could be useful during development is the
"die_on_bad_params" thing. But I haven't used when I've use HT, so I
don't miss it anyway.

That's another good feature!

I think, the API is stable now. I'm using HTC a lot and update it when
possible and I've no problems with new versions.

I like HTC as it is lightweigth but has the features I need. I've never
tried to use TT, but it seems to be too heavy for a very small website.
