IMHO, I like {} syntax as like as C# because the format strings are extensible.

My personal preference (and Pavel's, I guess) is to use the C-like
syntax.  But I wouldn't be upset if consensus congealed around some
other option.

They're both somewhat arcane. But I think the C syntax is likely to be more familiar to a wider group of users (including, for example, perl hackers) than the C# syntax, and is to be preferred on those grounds alone.
