Joe,
Just to save you finding another tools documentation less then useful. The
YAML website will simply explain how YAML can be used as a configuration
tool. That site will contain very little help when it comes to your specific
problems of implementation.

I would suggest that the wiki, snippets, forums, and other developers blogs
would be a better starting point. There is an abundance of information out
there... But an individual developer needs to take some responsibility for
holes in their own knowledge. Rather than berating the developers who have
invested a large amount of time in producing the symfony project and making
if freely available, maybe you could read the book and updated documentation
online.... then maybe after that you will feel better informed?

I only feel the need to comment as I read the developer list so that I can
better understand the symfony project as it develops through its release but
your constant bickering is driving me and I'm sure a number of other
to despair..

This isn't François by the way
