[coldsync-hackers] Would XML be a Good Thing?



	It occurred to me the other day that perhaps ColdSync should take
XML for its config files. The main advantage of XML is that it's much
easier for programs to read than the current .coldsyncrc format. This, in
turn, would make it easier to write a GUI front-end for ColdSync.
	This doesn't necessarily mean abandoning the current format, which
is less verbose than XML and easier for humans to read (IMHO). ColdSync
could simply use .coldsyncrc if it exists, or .coldsync.xml otherwise.

	Any thoughts? Is this a good idea? A bad idea? Does anyone feel
like tackling this?
