Please check this very informative post from Steve (OVAL board member):

We (the camp arguing for "flexible" configurations) should identify clever proposal at least conforming the following:

* Will be able to be "cold" (statically) assessed through current or future OVAL (first and most important use-case - VM images evaluation, second - augeas and alike on the live systems, third - custom auditing agents)

* Will looks cool for the sysadmins (the config languages users) (I am in doubt that any traditional scripting language will bring high score on this criteria)

 * Will enable desired (for the non-trivial cases) flexibility

Kind regards,
Alek
