    Legacy documents are the bane of any software migration. The
    Velocity Team has tried to ensure that existing templates can be
    converted for use within Velocity in as painless a manner as
    possible.
</p>
                                                <p>
    Currently there is only a WebMacro to Velocity template converter,
    but there are plans for a Tea to Velocity template converter, and a
    FreeMarker to Velocity template converter.
