My favourite is Quixote. Although I haven't used Webware much one thing 
I can say is that Quixote is easier to grasp than Webware. It has simple 
and powerful concepts and as a Python programmer I found it quite 
intuitive. I think Quixote PTL (Python Template Language) is also the 
'right way' to do web templates. With PTL, you reuse a lot of Python 
knowledge instead of having to learn yet another template language.
