Just for clarity, the _why_ was asking if it was for an existing Mason 1
site, or if he was starting a new project. Not saying that Mason shouldn't
be used (each to their own and all that).

Mind you at the same time, I wouldn't promote it...

I think it' is possible to create good Mason sites, I've just not
seen or heard of any that didn't end up being a twisty maze with
logic in too many places and little/no MVC separation. This was
all pre Mason2 which I've not looked at either so things may
have changed and as I say, I'm sure it is possible.

what some people think is currently being used in production by a lot
of clueful people.
