I created a spec called MOML and is a markdown-friendly alternative to YAML. It uses plain markdown but allows you to section off parts of the markdown file in order to organize data in a sensible fashion. It has support for arrays so far it only has support for 3 data types: small text, text, and array (of small text or text).
I'm slowly adding features to it like typing, object nesting, etc.
I created it for easier blogging. I'm not a fan of YAML because it's indent-based and I wanted to have a markdown file that hosts all the information about a post on it from the date, to snippet, to main text, title, metadata, hell even a sidebar ad, and author, etc.
I did end up creating a parser for it that I couple with a blogging engine.
The current compiler transforms the MOML file into a JS object
