Perhaps XML.
Personally I like the RFC format. It's embrued with a
mystique and reverence. Like as if one were reading a parchment
document, written by blokes wearing hooded cloaks
and sat at high lecterns, with quill pens. Makes
the process of reading and writing one a special
experience. Same thing as legal documents---always printed
on some whacky size of paper, and tied up in a pink
ribbon, or sealed with hot wax.
Break out your copy of roff (the assembler version
from UNIX v7, running on a PDP-11 emulator) and
get writing :)
