: Fix YAML parsing issue

Erik: Are you reading perl blogs now or did someone email you about this?

(you seem to have single handedly started a movement)
http://use.perl.org/articles/07/09/06/0324215.shtml

I got alerted through my aggregator somehow of this:

  http://bricas.vox.com/library/post/changesyml-spec.html

and the same guy posted it over to the link you sent which he shared with me in #code4lib earlier today. So no, not reading Perl blogs, I got much sharper sticks I'd rather stick in my eye! But I did stumble on that one today and indeed I had gotten lax and screwed up the data structure it parsed to. Now its a clean Ruby Hash like this:

$ jirb
irb(main):001:0> require 'yaml'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> YAML.load_file('/Users/erik/dev/solr/client/ruby/ solr-ruby/CHANGES.yml') => {"v0.0.2"=>{"changes"=>["mappers, etc"], "release_date"=>#<Date: 4908471/2,0,2299161>}, "v0.0.3"=>{"changes"=>["Adjusted HpricotMapper and XPathMapper, and tests, to load only if their dependencies are available."], "release_date"=>#<Date: 4908485/2,0,2299161>}, "v0.0.4"=>{"changes"=>["Solr::Indexer#solr added to gain access to the Solr::Connection instance", "Fixed issue with multi-line String field values when field set multiValued=\"false\"", "Fixed tests to work without either Hpricot or libxml2"], "release_date"=>#<Date: 4908657/2,0,2299161>}, "v0.0.5"=>{"changes"=>["Added support for highlighter fragment size to Solr::Request::Standard", "Added support for MoreLikeThese to Solr::Request::Standard", "Added Solr::Request::ModifyDocument (requires SOLR-139 patch)", "Added Solr::Util.query_parser_escape()"], "release_date"=>"2007-08-??"}, "v0.0.1"=>{"changes"=>["initial release"], "release_date"=>#<Date: 4908293/2,0,2299161>}}

Kinda cute, but not worth starting a revolution about. Structure is overrated.

        Erik
