We have:
*a XML header
*a '''quest''' packet  (1 per file)
**a '''tasks''' packet containing 2 things:
***a '''task''' packet (the main one of the quest) containing some informations:
****name=value
****...
****and 0 or more other '''task''' packets which can each contain 0 or more other '''task''' packet and so on...
***a '''list''' packet containing some informations:
****name=value
****...
