Ok, I've pulled the json source out of the src distribution image and have modified the ant build so that the json stuff is downloaded as needed like the other dependencies.
Please take one more look at the zips and weigh in on whether they're ready to go. Once we get enough +1's I'll post a note to the Incubator PMC requesting permission to go ahead with the release. Zips are at: http://people.apache.org/~jmsnell - James
