Oh, definitely agreed. I cannot assert that non-Perl implementations of JSON are any better, but JSON is simple enough that I'm pretty damned sure they are. However, YAML is so problematic that I *CAN* state that non-Perl versions are often as problematic as Perl's. As much as I aesthetically appreciate the *appearance* of YAML, I accept David Golden's argument that the diagnostics should be more focused on machine reading than human reading.
