It's  lacking features. It's not sufficient to do everything we need to do.


Anyway, regarding the opposition against a new package format: may I 
ask are you actually against:

* the new format (be it XML, YAML or anything else)
* support for muliple variants
* or both.


My I finally add in that "new format" very well could mean "old 
format with extended features" ? It's just that so far nobody 
suggested how the old format could be extended to support variants.


BTW, another thing that using XML IMHO would simplify & beautify is 
the representation of multiple source files. Just my two cents.


Cheers,

Max
