yaml parser in C++

In case anyone might be interested, I wrote a YAML parser in C++, and
I put it on google code:

http://code.google.com/p/yaml-cpp/

It's based on libyaml (I'm indebted to the idea of first scanning to
produce tokens of an LL(1) language, and then parsing), but it's not a
wrapper for it. It uses the STL, but depends on nothing more (no
boost, etc.), and I tried to make it feel STL-ish. In fact, I think
this might be the primary reason to use it, compared to, say, libyaml
(which is very good - don't get me wrong!).

It should be pretty easy to attach to any project - I'm using Visual
Studio, but there's really nothing dependent on that, so you could
whip up a makefile for gcc pretty easily.

Finally, regarding completeness: it's written for the 1.2 spec, and
barring any bugs (heh), it should implement it exactly, except:

1. Anchors/aliases are parsed, but not implemented in representation.
2. Tags are a bit half-assed, mainly because I didn't need them. But I
think they mostly work.

Let me know what you think!
