Please check this very informative post from Steve (OVAL board member):

We (the camp arguing for "flexible" configurations) should identify
clever proposal at least conforming the following:
* Will be able to be "cold" (statically) assessed through current or
future OVAL (first and most important use-case - VM images evaluation,
second - augeas and alike on the live systems, third - custom auditing
agents)
* Will looks cool for the sysadmins (the config languages users) (I am
in doubt that any traditional scripting language will bring high score
on this criteria)
* Will enable desired (for the non-trivial cases) flexibility
Kind regards,
Alek
