 Serialization formats

+Django "ships" with a few included serializers:
 
-.. note::
+    ==========  ==============================================================
+    Identifier  Information
+    ==========  ==============================================================
+    ``xml``     Serializes to and from a simple XML dialect.
+
+    ``json``    Serializes to and from JSON_ (using a version of simplejson_
+                bundled with Django).
+
+    ``python``  Translates to and from "simple" Python objects (lists, dicts,
+                strings, etc.).  Not really all that useful on its own, but 
+                used as a base for other serializers.
