I've added it to my to do list - it's interesting to me because I originally
started my XmlSerialization project primarily because I wanted some sort of
quick and easy .conf file, with an emphasis on clean, clear xml (which
doesn't always happen).

Does YAML.rb currently handle circular obj references? This is one thing my
module lacks that I'd like to support, but it's going to require an id
system within the XML to keep it straight, which means more 'clutter' in the
xml.
