Dear Otavio Salvador,

I fully agree that the environment file should be as easy as possible to be written. However I also think it should be parsed by CPP or something which would allow us to 'include' other environment files and enable/disable parts of it depending on board config. My ultimate goal with it would be to allow sharing of environment setup across different boards (for example the Freescale boards).
Don't overdesign this. Keep it simple. If you want, you can split up the settings into several functional blocks (variable groups; this could even be mapped into the actual U-Boot env, too). Then simply concatenate the right selection of parts.
See my previous message to Simon - keep the format compatible with "env import/export -t".
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
