I have been asked by David Golden to review tickets in YAML::Tiny's rt.cpan.org bug queue.
AFAICT, YAML::Tiny has no problem parsing Spreadsheet::Read's META.yml file.
Testing Spreadsheet-Read v0.49, I get:
##########
my $y = YAML::Tiny->read($meta);
say Dumper $y;
##########
$VAR1 = bless( [

I will close this ticket within 7 days unless someone offers a significant objection.
Thank you very much.
