So far the ONLY objective problems with YAML seems to be the
problematic implementation named PyYAML. If this is really the
case, I'd gladly help build a better one just to prevent TOML from
being chosen for this task. That we're even /considering/ building
something as important as this on an unstable standard is pretty
horrifying to me in itself.
Just my two cents here: every time, but every every time, I have to
google around about how to create a multi-line string in YAML. There
are too many ways to write the same thing. And lets not forget those
damn sexagesimal literals. The complexity of that language is beyond
repair, it's not a *library* problem. Just look at insanities like
this
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3790454/in-yaml-how-do-i-break-a-string-over-multiple-lines/21699210#21699210>
or this <http://blog.teamlazerbeez.com/2009/04/15/yaml-gotchas/> .
I have no problem with any of the examples you linked to.
Thanks,
