<br>
I'm wondering about replacing (some of) our home-made file formats by some <br>
standard - json, xml, yaml, whatever, ideas welcome.<br>
<br>
My rationale is that it's a pain to change the parsing code each time we want <br>
to add something to an existing file.<br>
<br>
<br>
Opinions? Flames? Blessings?<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
