I don't think Marco mentioned Python or Java. He mentioned
libraries/frameworks which happen to be implemented in Python or Java,
but he didn't really seem concerned about programming skills at that
level.
The closest thing to programming that he seemed to be concerned about
is the logic embedded in the template itself. I believe Marco is
saying that his "end users" have sufficient skills to "program" in the
templating language (in this case, FreeMarker Template Language), and
they (the end users!) specifically like having that level of
flexibility and power at their disposal.
Now, I'm not completely sure how FreeMarker and XDocReport work
together. But I think Marco's question for you amounts to: Where in
your solution do the end users have the ability to inject logic, the
way they currently do with FreeMarker? Clearly, Marco isn't going to
make his users learn RPG (or Python or Java for that matter).
