Description Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-06-24 17:42:02 UTC 
Serpent is a simple serialization library based on ast.literal_eval.

Because it only serializes literals and recreates the objects using ast.literal_eval(), the serialized data is safe to transport to other machines (over the network for instance) and de-serialize it there.

Reproducible: Always
