Maybe you can use ConfigObj_ or JSON_ to store that data.  Another format
mentioned in the binary XML article you've linked in your post is
`ASN.1`_. And there's a secure alternative to `pickle` called cerealizer_.

.. _`ASN.1`: http://pyasn1.sourceforge.net/
.. _cerealizer: http://home.gna.org/oomadness/en/cerealizer/
.. _ConfigObj: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/configobj.html
.. _JSON: http://www.json.org/
