[Python-Dev] Draft PEP on RSON configuration file format (original) (raw)

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:

Thanks and best regards, Pat
