| ======================= | |
| Announcing PyYAML-4.1 | |
| ======================= | |
| A new MAJOR RELEASE of PyYAML is now available: | |
| https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/ | |
| This is the first release of PyYAML under a new maintenance team. In August | |
| 2016, maintenance of PyYAML and LibYAML was turned over from the original | |

| The canonical source repo moved: | |
| from: https://bitbucket.org/xi/pyyaml/ | |
| to: https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml | |
| The PyYAML project is now maintained by the YAML and Python communities. | |
| Planning happens on the #yaml-dev, #pyyaml and #libyaml IRC channels on | |
| irc.freenode.net. | |

| About PyYAML | |
| ============ | |
| YAML is a data serialization format designed for human readability and | |
| interaction with scripting languages. PyYAML is a YAML parser and emitter for | |
| Python. | |
| PyYAML features a complete YAML 1.1 parser, Unicode support, pickle support, | |
| capable extension API, and sensible error messages. PyYAML supports standard | |
| YAML tags and provides Python-specific tags that allow to represent an | |
| arbitrary Python object. | |
| PyYAML is applicable for a broad range of tasks from complex configuration | |
| files to object serialization and persistence. | |
| Example | |
