that's a very oversimplifying statement. REST is good for small requests and stuff but there are cases when SOAP is needed (at least in cases when you have to connect to some external app with SOAP interface) YAML is good for configuration files and stuff like that, but in no way is replacement for XML, which is much more flexible and has the DOM API which is very powerful. and by the way, symfony has YAML configuration files and a plugin for REST services. greets Zoltán Németh -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
