 This topic has been discussed on the ZOO project IRC channel, but i would
 like to make an official request to discuss this in the trac system. :)

 It would be very practical to use YAML config files instead of the current
 zcfg files for service description.

 The current approach is partly too restrictive. YAML would be a huge
 benefit.
 To convert existing XML process descriptions into the YAML format, a
 python module is available:
 http://code.google.com/p/vtk-grass-
 bridge/source/browse/trunk/WPS/ZOO_Project/GrassXMLtoYAML.py

 To run the script python YAML [1] and PyXB [2] must be installed. This
 script has been tested with GIS GRASS generated XML WPS process
 description files only.
