The issue is not with humans reading and writing SDLang files
- like you said, the syntax is not hard, and besides - the
default should be enough for most of the basic learning
projects one can make, so by the time you actually need to
edit dub.sdl you should know enough D to not be learning two
things at once.

Where you looking for this:

Yes, and eventually I found it - when I searched with "Ruby
Simple Declarative Language". My point was not that it doesn't
exist, but that it much harder than it should have been to search
for it.
BTW - I tried, just to see what I get, to search for a Python
implementation:
"Python SDL", as expected, yields only results related to Simple
DirectMedia Layer.
"Python Simple Declarative Language" the only related thing I
find ikayzo's github page(which contains SDLang implementations
for Java, .NET and Ruby - but not for Python).
And here comes the fun part:
"Python SDLang" does not find the SDLang implementation for
Python - at least not on the first page.
But - the first 3 results are about an SDL implementation...
... it's SDLang-D!
Yes, you got that right - I searched for something related to
Python(!!!) and got a result for D. So yea, maybe SDLang wasn't
created specifically for DUB, but it might as well have been.
Either that, or D suddenly became more popular than Python. I'll
let you judge which of these two alternatives is more probable.
