Realy? Not plain text? or tab/space separated? Having written a bunch of tools that parse plaintext, it’s a pain in the rear. It’s far easier to have JSON and a schema for working with that JSON when developing tools to parse things out. Programmers are inherently lazy — the more we have to make them work, the more pushback we’re going to get from them as far as integrating FreeBSD’s concerned. Thanks!
