+### Reading the code
+
+Knowing what's going on while coding salama is not so easy: Hnce the need to look at code dumps
+
+Hence the need for a code/object file format (remeber an oo program is just objects, some data, some code, all objects)
+
+I started with yaml, which is nice in that it has a solid implementation, reads and writes, handles arbitrary objects, 
+handles graphs and is a sort of readable text format.
+
+But the sort of started to get to me, because 1) it's way to verbose and 2) does not allow for (easy) ordering.
+Also it was placing references in weird (first seen) places.
+
+To fix this i started on Sof, with an eye to expand it.
+
+The main starting goal was quite like yaml, but with
+
+- more text per line, specifically objects with simle attributes to have a constructor like syntax
+- Shorter class names (no ruby/object or even ruby/struct stuff)
+- references at the most shallow level
+- a possibility to order attributes and specify attributes that should not be serialized

 ### Salama Object File
 
 Ok, so we all heard about object files, it's the things compilers create so we don't have to have huge compiles and
 can link them later.
 
-Much few know what they include, and that is not because they are not very useful, but rather very complicated.

 An object machine must off course have it's own object files, because:
