Hi Brad, I've been following you discussion about wine's registry format, and I find it interesting. I gave it some thought, I have have an idea. Have you thought about using XML as a potential format? Since the registry is a non-relational tree database, this seems to fit quite well. Plus, there's a few libraries that would do the dirty work for us (libxml, expat, many others, name your pick). It could even be possible to modularize the registry using technologies like XInclude or XLink. Just thought I'd offer my two cents.

I'm quite open to all suggestions, but I really want to get the over-all ok to start work on it. . . I want to make sure that people agree that this is a project that could benefit wine.
Please, everyone tell me your opinion and feel free to throw out ideas.
Thanks,
