XML vs. YAML comparison

[Luca Gioppo <luca.gioppo@csi.it>]

Dear all,

I've wrote a brief comparison of the 2 standards.

 

I can say that the YAML could benefit of a more structured presentation: the ordering of the grammas and so on is a bit late in the doc that presents the examples before (useful for hackers, less helpful for spec implementors).

 

As you can see there are BIG differences (even more than the one stated in J.1.1)

 

Hope that can be of help to discuss on some YAML quirks I have.

Luca
