| Dump/Dumper | A dumper is the set of stack transformations that convert data from a program memory structure to YAML text.
| Explicit key | The `?` explicit key indicator is used in block mappings to convey that the node that follows it is a mapping key. This is most commonly used for mapping keys that are collections.
| Flow | The term *flow* is used to describe the YAML syntax form that uses `{}` and `[]` indicators for collection scoping. It is a proper superset of the JSON syntax. Flow nodes can appear inside of block nodes, but block nodes cannot appear inside of flow nodes.
| Folded scalar | The folded syntax form is a block scalar indicated by `>` syntax and is followed by text lines that are indented past the current level. The text lines are joined together according to rather complex rules. The general rule is that 2 adjacent, non-blank lines are joined by a single space. Analagous to HTML text folding.

| Framework | A YAML implementation in a given programming language is called a framework.
| Kind | YAML has 3 *kinds* of nodes: mapping, sequence and scalar.
| Literal scalar | The *literal* block scalar form is used for multiline text. It begins with the `|` indicator. The text lines are indented past the current indentation level, but otherwise left as is. This is the best way to represent multiline plain text files in YAML.

YAML is commonly used as a configuration language, but it was designed to be a general purpose language for data.

The purpose of the YAML Data Project is to provide information about the YAML language, and the projects that surround it.
To continue being a vital part of the technology ecosystem, YAML needs to evolve to accomodate the needs of communities it serves.

In 2020, there are renewed efforts to bring these changes to fruition.
