<p>
The <code>template</code> and <code>exp/template/html</code> packages have moved to
<a href="/pkg/text/template/"><code>text/template</code></a> and
<a href="/pkg/html/template/"><code>html/template</code></a>.
More significant, the interface to these packages has been simplified.
The template language is the same, but the concept of "template set" is gone
and the functions and methods of the packages have changed accordingly,
often by elimination.
</p>
<p>
Instead of sets, a <code>Template</code> object
may contain multiple named template definitions,
in effect constructing
name spaces for template invocation.
A template can invoke any other template associated with it, but only those
templates associated with it.
The simplest way to associate templates is to parse them together, something
made easier with the new structure of the packages.
</p>
<p>
<em>Updating</em>:
The imports will be updated by fix tool.
Single-template uses will be otherwise be largely unaffected.
Code that uses multiple templates in concert will need to be updated by hand.
The <a href="/pkg/text/template/#examples">examples</a> in
the documentation for <code>text/template</code> can provide guidance.
