Issue #8344 has been updated by Zachary Scott. Status changed from Closed to Assigned Target version changed from 2.1.0 to current: 2.2.0 ---------------------------------------- Bug #8344: Status of Psych and Syck https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8344#change-45911 * Author: Benoit Daloze * Status: Assigned * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Zachary Scott * Category: lib * Target version: current: 2.2.0 * ruby -v: ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-04-28 trunk 40513) [x86_64-darwin10.8.0] * Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: REQUIRED ---------------------------------------- Hello, The current state of YAML being Psych is still a bit unclear (see lib/yaml.rb). I propose to document YAML as always being (=) Psych, and give a tip about the syck gem which might be used with the Syck constant (but the YAML constant is always Psych). Do we need to keep Psych::EngineManager? I guess for compatibility it is safer? May I document it as deprecated so it might removed in a future version?
