Found this on /r/programming today. Seemed relevant. Gist is that YAML spec is ambiguous and implementations seem to disagree widely on proper interpretation. https://github.com/cblp/yaml-sucks

YAML is what it says, lol.
I still prefer using SGML and outputting whatever markup I need, although I have to use US army software (that only works on Windows) to do it since Adobe gouges for FrameMaker.
Probably a long lasting hangover from working for IBM years ago. Sure was a headache, so a hangover isnât that surprising.
Looking for the latest version of that software for a new Win 10 install I came across one of the best quotes on Windows, especially considering the source, though the quote mustâve been written about an old version.
âWith luck, this will start Windows, and a dialogue box will appear and tell you the default drive into which IADS will be installed (C:).
If Windows doesn't start up, you could always try launching Windows manually.â

For your information. We got some problem with travis (what a bad idea to have a syntax like yaml - our industry is looping , even xml is better). we spent more than 30 min trying with Guille and Andrew to use bash in a script section (while this is working in some guille project) it does not in other just because yaml does not know who to find the end of a line....
Terrible!

Hi,
my team starts to use QCMagritte. For our needs we have imported SmalltalkHub repository to Github here: https://github.com/Afibre/QCMagritte
I don't know if you (Diego, Stephan, Tobias) plan to use Github instead of SmalltalkHub. At least Github allows branches & pull request.
Definitely, and I'm still struggling a bit with Iceberg. I would definitely favor a setup where the whole open source part is build on each commit using travis and images are put on (e.g.) bitbucket. The current jenkins builds are waiting for Diego to finish some changes, and he is a bit distracted with plans for a new house.
Tobias told me he's also interested, so I assume he'll provide a modified baseline for other platforms.
At a certain point we might want to fold all of QCMagritte back into Magritte, but that is a discussion for later I think.
