I would suggest to do the migration but not to merge it till official yaql
1.0 release which is going to happen soon.
As for the docs it is still very hard to write them since yaql 1.0 has got
tons on new features and hundreds of functions. Any help is appreciated.
But 99% of yaql 1.0 features and functions are covered by unit tests and
there are ~250 of them so this is the best source of information at the
moment.

Sincerely yours,
Stan Lagun
Principal Software Engineer @ Mirantis
