I just joined the templates list, so forgive the lack of threading.
I'm replying to email I saw on the list archives...

I'm the author of Number::Format which I have been sadly neglecting
for a long time.  However I recently moved the project from my own CVS
repository to SourceForge and started adding new developers.  One of
these is Darren Chamberlain, the author of
Template::Plugin::Number::Format.  That module is going to be made a
part of the Number::Format project and released as part of
Number::Format going forward.  Any patches, features, ideas, or other
contributions you (or others on this list) might have to the
Number::Format project would be welcomed.
