What are the other problems?
I'm not sure what Max is referring to, other than the fact that I hate XML (or at least using XML for this API) and generally don't like the fact that we have to support so many formats. As I said on Bugzilla earlier today, if I ever were to rewrite the API from scratch it'd be JSON-only. However, we can't actually get rid of XML realistically.
- YAML - we don't serve real YAML anyway, currently it's just a subset
of JSON.
YAML is just a few harmless lines of code, why would you want to remove it?
Yeah that can probably stay, it's not worth breaking anything over.
