DESCRIPTION

30       This module implements a subset of the YAML specification for use in
31       reading and writing CPAN metadata files like META.yml and MYMETA.yml.
32       It should not be used for any other general YAML parsing or generation
33       task.

SUPPORT

36       This module is currently derived from YAML::Tiny by Adam Kennedy.  If
37       there are bugs in how it parses a particular META.yml file, please file
38       a bug report in the YAML::Tiny bugtracker:
