Hey this is a very cool project! When you were developing it, I'm curious if you took any special security precautions in your design of this project, seeing how XML/JSON/YAML serialization and de-serialization are the topic of many high profile CVEs, particularly in the Ruby community?

Shale uses Ruby's standard library parsers out of the box, so if you keep your Ruby up to date with security updates you will be good. Also others in this thread suggested to set minimal version on dependencies, so I'll probably do that in the future version.
