Voted no. About SDL, i think that the comment summarizes 
everthing: not popular, bad name. One last detail:

http://sdl.ikayzo.org/

It looks like it's even not worth fixing it for the author(s). 
(But of course I apologize in case of the problem would be 
related to the guy(s) being sick or worth).

Also neither VisualD nor MonoD support SDL. My IDE will never, 
but that's less a problem since it's not published anymore.

And by the way what the problem the JSON format had that gets 
solved by SDL ?
