So let have the question another way: Do we keep XML or do we switch to something else ? If so, which format ? I and some others think xml is not appropriate here because of the complexity. So I do think there is a need to change. INI or other ? INI is used widely in PHP and users know it. But it's not well adapted for the actual php-fpm configuration organisation. (properties in sections or subsections). If choosed how will it be organized ?
We should be using INI unless there are compelling reasons against it, now that this project becomes a part of the PHP source tree. As far as I can tell there are no such compelling reasons and it can actually map quite nicely into INI, hence, that's what we should use. Zeev
