I have a reply in the works but there are more important tasks right
now.

JSON seems to be the new standard of the year (it is actually far easier
to work with - the C parser/builder I use as has a mere 1300 lines).  I
don't like to play catch-up with the current whatever data presentation
standard.  But if someone likes to do that: it is pretty easy to add an
JSON interface to gpgme-tool as an alternative to the XML output.


Shalom-Salam,
