Currently I'm thinking of some sort of html template with tags in there which I can replace with new html code when building the agenda. My problem is that I don't see how to handle loops. I want these templates to be creatable by the user (if they wish) so there needs to be a way to loop over elements of the agenda and format the result (the user may make a table, or just a list, or whatever they want).
