Karl Heinz Marbaise commented on MNG-6061:
------------------------------------------
I would suggest to take a look here: https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven
(Ruby, ATOM, Groovy) as formats..
> Alternative to XML for Maven configuration

> XML is often seen by developers as being verbose and cumbersome, I was
> wondering if creating a new configuration interface to Maven, using something
> like [YAML|http://yaml.org/] or [TOML|https://github.com/toml-lang/toml]
> would be possible, or is Maven too tightly tied to XML for this to be
> feasible?
