[PKG-Openstack-devel] Bug#792694: python-yaql: description reads like a history lesson in data formats
Vagrant Cascadian

Source: python-yaql
Severity: minor
Thanks for maintaining packages in Debian!
I don't really know much of anything about python-yaql, but reading
the description doesn't really help me understand...
"At the beginning of millennium the growing trend towards data
formats standardization and application integrability made XML
extremely popular. XML became lingua franca of the data."
It starts off with the trends of the millennium with something about
XML (does YAQL have anything to do with XML?), and goes on to talk
about XPath, XQL, JSON... A couple paragraphs later, it eventually
reveals the secret we've long been waiting for...
"One of those efforts was JSONPath library developed in 2007 by
Stefan Gössner. Initial implementation was for PHP and JavaScript
languages, but later on ports to other languages including Python
were written. YAQL is one of the implementations in Python."
So, I'm guessing YAQL is an JSONPath implementation in python.
It might be good to make the description a little more succinct. :)
live well,
vagrant
