I've never had much success with YAML except for the simplest YAML 
structures. I think it's way behind in spec implementation as it was 
last updated in 2002. For example, it won't accept:

  timezone: !str +0700

It also loads YAML's Yes and No to 'Yes' and 'No' instead of true/false. 
Do people really want this behaviour? I personally prefer the latter.

What were the error messages?
