I wrote this because while I like the basics of YAML, I think 95% of the spec is idiotic and needs to be tossed away: http://hitchdev.com/strictyaml http://hitchdev.com/strictyaml Ideally there should only be one scalar type (strings), two ways to represent strings (simple | multiline), just one way to represent mappings and lists. No nodes/anchors, no "YAML is a superset of JSON" silliness and absolutely no implicitly typed scalar values.
