JSON has mind share and is viewed as being "sexier" than XML-RPC for some reason. I think it's a strong candidate. Certainly we should just pick one of these data representations, preferably a fairly widespread language neutral one, and shouldn't under any circumstances roll our own. I don't think we'd want to go as far as YAML though, I can't see the need?
