The pure Python binding for YAML has had a few improvements:

  - now parses timestamps (D4)
  - includes yaml.timestamp data type
  - several bug fixes 

   http://yaml.org/python/PyYaml_25jul2002.tgz

PyYaml is still a work-in-progress, so expect changes,
although the specification itself is very stable and
will not change much any more.   This version still
lacks support for "flow" styles (A5,A6) and good 
support for data types; but alas, these will come
with time.  If you have time to hack... by all means!

YAML(tm) (rhymes with "camel") is a straightforward machine
parsable data serialization format designed for human readability
and interaction with scripting languages such as Perl and Python.
YAML is optimized for data serialization, configuration settings,
log files, Internet messaging and filtering.

Best,

Clark
