I think json probably makes the most sense, it's already part of the stdlib for 2.6+
and while it has some issues with human editablity, there's no reason why this json
file couldn't be auto generated from another data structure by the "package creation tool"
that exists outside of the stdlib (or inside, but outside the scope of this proposal).
Which is really part of what I like a lot about this proposal, how you come about the final
product doesn't matter, distutils, bento, yet-uncreated-tool, manually crafting tar balls and files,
you could describe your data in yaml, python, or going towards more magical ends of things,
it could be automatically generated from your filesystem. It doesn't matter, all that matters is
you create your final archive with the agreed upon structure and the agreed upon dist.(yml|json|ini)
and any compliant installer should be able to install it.
