Has anybody found an easy way to parse the CDATA returned by a notificationText API call? It would be easier if in XML so not sure why CDATA.

The text is in YAML format:

http://yaml.org/

There's parsers for it in many languages.

That gets you the data out of the notification text, but there's no documentation what the per-type data is, nor templates to turn that back into a human-readable message.
