I don't think so, but as that's about the only option you can put in that file it's ok to use JSON.

I tried it, it failed. :-(

Humans should never have to manually write XML or JSON.

What do you mean it failed? I did that on another computer to test and it works flawlessly for me.

This configuration file can contain only two options: default compiler and urls to reach when looking for packets. It's litterally 3 lines, while I support the fact that one should never have to write XML that's about as concise as it can get.

Oh, maybe you're on windows, in which case the settings.json file must be placed in either $ProgramData\dub or in $APPDATA\dub. Relevant lines of dub.d: https://github.com/dlang/dub/blob/master/source/dub/dub.d#L165
