Hi Elliot,

I remember having asked info about a possible YAML serialization format on the Slack Xml.com channel one year ago.

They don't really have a nice opinion about Yaml and no-one looked really interested in supporting it.

Thus I think there are philosophy matters here :-)

I don't remember the details of that request but in general I don't think some disdain for YAML means you can't support it, I think Calabash 3 for XProc 3 has support for it, as https://so.nwalsh.com/2020/02/15/xproc-30 says: "The p:load step will happily load YAML".

Probably no help currently in the context of BaseX and XQuery but at least some people in the XML community do support reading YAML.
