Hi All,

I've been talking to bsag about yaml importing. Recently I needed to  
import some yaml data into a clean tracks install, so I wrote up some  
code to do it. But this would only work if you wanted to start from an  
empty database, or override existing data with what you have in your  
yaml file (ie, restoring to a saved point).

Bsag mentioned that the plan was to integrate yaml_db somehow. But the  
down side to this is that it is used for dumping the whole database, a  
useful feature, if you are the admin ... but for single user backups  
(or in the case of a hosted version of tracks) this isn't really an  
option

So, my question to you is, where do you see the yaml export's going?  
Should we make an interface for the users(well admins) to use yaml_db  
to backup/ restore. Should we stick with the current, per user,  
export, import.

My feeling is that it might be worth having both options.

What do you think? what are the benefits of these options?
