I can add the scripts to INI file format. I feel XML is too heavy a

Yes, INI is easier to read but XML is ubiquitous and easier to sell.  I use 
tinyXML2.  TinyXML2 has been complete enough for me, and the footprint is small

I am happy to have XML added to the report formats produced by the RSB. I still think INI is an easier format to handle and what we should embed in the RTEMS source tree. The data is not that complex. If this is an issue maybe INI and XML can be embedded.
