I'm working on a project [as part of my degree] that intends to use XML for 
games generation, as well as configuration and save formats, bringing in the 
benefits of interoperability, resuability, etc.

I'll post more details when I have some concrete examples put together [and I 
sort out with the University whether I can release the project as open source].
