It should not be used for any other general YAML parsing or generation task. SUPPORT This module is currently derived from YAML::Tiny by Adam Kennedy. If there are bugs in how it parses a particular META.yml file, please file a bug report in the YAML::Tiny bugtracker: SEE ALSO YAML::Tiny, YAML, YAML::XS AUTHORS * Adam Kennedy * David Golden COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2010 by Adam Kennedy.
