Hehe.  Joker. :)

The idea of using an existing library is a good one.  I might scan through
the Ruby app archive for applications that use XML and build some YAML
interfaces for them.  Slide shows in YAML would be most excellent.

In fact, I'd like to head up to RubyConf this year and I'm thinking about
scheduling a presentation on YAML.  I wonder -- is anyone else on this list
planning on attending -- November in Seattle?
