sure, libxml2 is huge, but almost everybody will have it in memory

imho, xml *is* very human-readable if the DTD is sane and the output
is pretty-printed. and it's already defined, all the tools are in
place, and changing the DTD is a matter of writing a simple XSLT for
the users to convert their old versions.
so ++xml.

LISP is quite nice actually, but you'd need a complete LISP engine to
read it...
That wasn't really a serious suggestion. The libguile.so.12.3.0 file
on my system is over half a meg. Would all the LADSPA hosts be
willing to add that and whatever else it entails to their memory
footprint?
Libxml2 is even bigger, almost a meg. I wonder how many LADSPA hosts
already use it for some other reason? I see that ardour, jamin and
hydrogen do...
$ ldd `which ardour` | grep xml
libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 (0x40297000)
