All: Finding .ini configuration files too limiting, JSON and XML to hard to manually edit, and YAML too complex to parse quickly, I have started work on a new configuration file parser. I call the new format RSON (for "Readable Serial Object Notation"), and it is designed to be a superset of JSON. I would love for it to be considered valuable enough to be a part of the standard library, but even if that does not come to pass, I would be very interested in feedback to help me polish the specification, and then possibly help for implementation and testing. The documentation is in rst PEP form, at: http://rson.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/draftpep.txt Thanks and best regards, Pat
