Hi Robert,

you can use OpenLayers.Format.WMC (Web Map Context) for this purpose, 
although it's pretty much limited to OpenLayers.Layer.WMS.

If you need other types, you could look at the OWS Context specification 
by OGC, but there is no OL code currently for this format. Mapbuilder 
does have code for this IIRC.

Best regards,
Bart
