Hello everyone,
I've been working on SDL support for DUB and wanted to get some people's opinions on whether we should really use SDL. I've posted my thoughts here: http://forum.rejectedsoftware.com/groups/rejectedsoftware.dub/thread/2263/
Have you considered TOML? Rust's cargo uses it; it's very clean IMO. Like an extension to INI.
TOML was one of the candidates I looked at. I like it. The biggest advantage that ASON would have over TOML for DUB is it is a superset of JSON. TOML has it's own advantages, I personally wouldn't mind using it.
If you are going to use a superset of JSON (which I heartily agree with) then should just go ahead and use one of the many existing ones rather than rolling yet another.
Google turns up quite a few, pretty much all of which are equivalent to ASON in features. Find one that has decent support and run with it.
