Good morning, all,

Just a heads-up, in case you're not aware: the TEMPLATEPATH and
STYLESHEETPATH constants are slated for
deprecation<http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18298>
.

The Guidelines haven't changed yet, but expect that they will in the future
(most likely with the WordPress 3.3 release). I would strongly recommend
going ahead and replacing these constants now, with their equivalent
functions, get_template_directory() and get_stylesheet_directory().

(See the in-ticket comments for why this is the best practice, anyway.)
