Subject: | please comply with documentation, or update it to reflect reality |
Hi,
The situation of YAML parser/dumper modules on CPAN is pretty confusing.
This module's (seemingly old) documentation, as featured on its CPAN
page, claims that "soon" it will be replaced with an interface-only
module, and it will itself be made available as YAML::Old.
YAML::Old exist, and *it's* documentation claims that this switch has
happened at "the end of 2008".
Yet, this module here ('YAML') still exists as a non-interface module,
and has apparently continued to received bug fixes/features and new
releases.
What's up with that?
Is this module now deprecated or not?
Which YAML parser should a Perl application developer choose for new
projects?
If your plans have changed, can you please update the documentation to
provide clarity?
Regards,
Sam
