It doesn't sound like he coded all that much from the post. He even mentions that Cactus is a little bit too much work since there's not much of an existing community surrounding it. I was just surprised that it was the CTO of Amazon after I read the post.

Actually I did do some coding for the conversion, etc. :-) But I like it when doing something new to be able to look at how other people solved similar problems. And it is a bit early for Cactus in that respect, and Liquid feels much simpler than Django templates.
