A lot of people are saying they don't want to invent a new language - SDL. Well, to me, this looks a lot like IBMs Stanza format, used in AIX forever, and also the configuration format a company I used to work for came up with - purely because you specify the object you want to create and assign the properties. I think the SDL is very readable, and would probably use it if we didn't already use lots of XML files and *gasp* properties files. -NareshSikha: I hope that the bulk of Hivemind Services and Configurations are written by junior developers who are more concerned about their resume than the strength of the architecture they are fulfilling. This will afford more time for architects and leads to solve the interesting problems. Therefore I think '''tools''' should be delivered to help devlopers author valid module definitions (Eclipse plugins are a good starting point). Then the details of the definition are more or less irrelevant. Barring that, please, please, give junior developers a chance to strength their industry standard skills in XML and what not by allowing for industry standard means for communicating metadata (XML). +NareshSikha: I hope that the bulk of Hivemind Services and Configurations are written by junior developers who are more concerned about their resume than the strength of the architecture they are fulfilling.
