• Configuration files are hard to read / edit. Why don't you use YAML or XXML for config ?

  First, we need something that support nested config so we can not use ConfigParser. Next, we tested severals YAML packages, but they are really slow to import. We want xAAL stack to load as fast as possible, and importing big packages (like PyYAML) take around 0.5 sec on a Raspy. This is way too much for a simple command-line tools like xaal-info for example. We want to provide a better user experience.
