Hi all,

Since we are talking about serialization format of archetypes, I guess
we are not talking about a very large amount of data.

I would prefer to keep the serialization format(s) as close to the
object model as possible in order to reduce differences between
standards and associated tooling work.

Cheers,
Rong
