How stable is the TOML format? Is it bound to change significantly in

If the format is stable enough, then I think it's a good idea.
The last update to the spec [1] was 10 months ago and added a few
features. The version before that was stable for more than 3 years. It
is also worth noting that he writes about the current version [2]:
"As of version 0.5.0, TOML should be considered extremely stable. The
goal is for version 1.0.0 to be backwards compatible (as much as humanly
possible) with version 0.5.0. All implementations are strongly
encouraged to become 0.5.0 compatible so that the transition to 1.0.0
will be simple when that happens."
That is of course no guarantee, but maybe the best we can hope for.
Cheers,
Bastian
