Your YAML binding conversion should have been a standalone patch only
doing that conversion, the new compatible should have been split out and
gone first - each patch should only do one thing as covered in
submitting-patches.rst.  As things stand the changelog for the
conversion is misleading since it doesn't mention the new compatible.

Please fix your mail client to word wrap within paragraphs at something
substantially less than 80 columns.  Doing this makes your messages much
easier to read and reply to.
