Colinux is the first project I know of that has abandoned XML config files because they were too unreadable and difficult for users to maintain.
yes, but earlier, ganglia dumped xml in favor of s-expressions. Also, a little birdie in xensource told us they declined to go with xml and stuck with sexpressions. People are beginning to realize just how much XML sucks as a universal description language. Too late in some cases, but we can hope. It is quite pathetic that people all jumped on the XML bandwagon, and then we have binary XML (!) and XML co-processors (!!) and nobody realizes that there's something wrong with this picture (!!!). ron
