Err, that's what I thought too. It won't change anymore, if it's 
dead, right? Also, in the case of SDL, the parser has already 
been written, for better or worse. But in the case of TOML, time 
would be spent on _yet another markup language_, and for what? 
Once D takes off we can think about these things. Atm, they're 
not really important. Our house doesn't stand properly yet and 
we're discussing effin bikesheds.
