Uhm, it is possible to carry RDF over YAML and still preserve
namespaces, and possibly conforming to a YSchema in the future.

See this example from my work-in-progress RDF::YAML module:

--- #YAML:1.0
_ymlns:
  '': http://www.cpan.org/
  dc: http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/
http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBI-1.38/:
  dc:date: _2003-08-25T20:36:26
  dc:format: _application/x-gzip
  dc:identifier: http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBI-1.38/
  dc:publisher: http://www.cpan.org/
  dc:type: http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/Software
  distversion: _DBI-1.38
  version: _1.38

I'm not advocating to use YAML to replace N3 or NTriples on CPAN, but to
me it is much easier to grok/produce RDF using this format than RDF/XML.

Thanks,
