Guiding Values

Guiding values help the Technical Steering Committee to make decisions what to include, and how to include things in the standard.

Principles

  • We favor a small standard over a large one

    • Instead of adding every field to the standard, go more in favor of allowing extensions
    • Keep the standard small, so it remains simple
  • We favor interoperability over readability

    • Tool interoperability (import/export) is crucial for the success of the standard
    • Developers, however, should still be able to read and write the YAML format
