Way back in the mists of time, a ConfigParserShootout was mooted and a wiki page
dedicated to looking at alternative implementations - a whole bunch of
candidates were nominated (disclosure: including one that I wrote, but also
Michael's ConfigObj) but then it never went anywhere. Here's the link to the
Wiki page:

Perhaps we should have a vote to select the one or two to include ;-)
