@lyse Lack of comments are definitely a shortcoming of JSON. I don't like TOML because it lets you have nested categories ([foo] [foo.bar] [foo.baz]) and it just feels confusing to me, even with indentation. Simple INI files are okay.
The Prosody XMPP server's configuration file is just a Lua script because Prosody is written in Lua, and that's excellent.
I spent hours creating a perfect Prosody config for my most recent XMPP server attempt (about 2-3 years ago now) and I lost that file because I deleted the VPS. That was the only important file on there and I just didn't think of it when I deleted it. I didn't have a single backup, not even an old copy I scped back to my PC for editing.
I hope I won't make that mistake again but I wouldn't be surprised if I did.
@mckinley Don't forget the syntax for arrays of sets [[foo.bars]] [[foo.bars]] [[foo.bars]]

@mckinley Same here. Reading the spec I came across some confusing or not inherently logical things. Maybe they turn out not so bad in practice.
Being also a Python programmer, I wish there would be more indentation-based stuff. I do like that part with YAML.
Oh no! :-( That's bad to hear. I configured ejabberd years ago and it just is Erlang if I remember correctly. Quite a cool choice for that software.
