Hi list,

Are there plans to implement YAML? I found JSON support but that is missing a feature I would like to use. Apparently JSON is a subset of YAML, but it doesn't have a direct way to capture binary data.

JSON is not related to YAML at all except in that it is a simple data format.

And as far as I can see from the specs, YAML also does not offer a direct way
to capture binary data. IMHO both need to specify binary data as an array of bytes.

All that aside, I think it would be good to have an implementation that reads and produces YAML.

Michael.
