While normally a lurker on this list, I am trying to use YAML …

That would be tricky to define. What about other misleading cases, such as:

- a
    b: c
- d

Untyped scalars are problematic for my applications.  I’m forced to always say that I’m using a ‘subset of YAML’.



For example?

My point was this should probably be considered an indentation error. ie we probably shouldn't allow a line starting with '- ' in a plain multi-line scalar.

YAML is about maps, sequences, and scalars, and this translates to neither. You have a node that has both a scalar value 'a' and also a list of children [ 'b' ]. I may be over-thinking it, but does this try to naively represent some XML-like data? In which case it should be:

  - tag: a
    children:
    - tag: b
  - tag:c

Or something along these lines?

Seems like the intent was more like ..

 - a:
  - tag: b
 - tag: c

I'm working on a universal YAML test suite, and finding unexpected things.

Guess what this does:

- a
  - b
- c


Trees structures anyone?

P.S. @igny sorry I bailed on you in helping with those projects, I just don't ever seem to have the time, and it wasn't really clear to me what I could actually do to help.
