I don't want to specify "the format is the one that the csv module produces". Instead, I could accept an explicit specification of what the CSV module produces, indicating that mirrors are encouraged to use the CSV module to actually produce the data. However, if somebody prefers to implement the mirror in Perl, then this should still be possible. So what would the specification then read like?
