The "official" site is here:

   http://tt3.template-toolkit.org/

It's a little out of date and some of the design has changed since I 
wrote those pages and code.  There's no real plan, and only a handful of 
featured discussed, but there is code you can download and play with 
(but not use in any real application).

There's also the slides from a talk I gave to London.pm about some of 
the planned features:

TT3 coding is spurious and appears in high energy bursts between babies, 
jobs, TT2 releases and other real life distraction.  But the design 
process is ongoing and has been trickling along for about 5 years now. 
Randal's taking bets on which comes first: Perl 6 or TT3 ;-)

Anyway I've now got a pretty good idea about how it is all going to work 
and I'm just waiting for some free time to get back into coding it 
again.  I've currently got a big job on for a client which is expected 
to run until October.  I'm hoping that when that's done the few months 
at the end of the year/start of the next will give me a chance to get it 
finished or close to it.

Cheers
