I am familiar with the TeXsis package and it is really very nice,
I recommend it very strongly to anyone's system administrator!

(Well, you see, it is a large package, so it is better for a system-
administrator to install it for everyone than for people to own
individual copies. But if your system administrator won't cooperate,
then by all means get a personal copy.)

One extremely positive feature of TeXsis not brought out in this
announcement is that, unlike LaTeX, TeXsis is 100% compatible with
Plain TeX.  What that means to us users is that, should the need
arise, we can actually use whatever little we might have managed
to learn from the TeXbook.
