I'm strongly in favour of discarding SDL. We already converted SDL files in our project to XML because of the better tool support for XML. And I think it's a pity if you spend your valuable time on writing SDL parsers, documenting SDL syntax, fixing bugs related to it, and so on and so forth. Also, I don't feel SDL is much leaner than the XML equivalent. So, please use your great capabilities to advance Hivemind in more important areas!

Although, I am still in favor of a scripting language; I have done my experimentation and I am convinced a scripting language is a much better fit considering configurations. Between SDL and XML, I don't see much of a difference as such, but when considering tool support, XML would probably win.
