After studying the code a bit more, I vote for BSON. It does have conversion to/from JSON, lots of documentation, is heavily used, and should be fairly easily added to our 'other' src. In addition, it is buildable on Windows (MSVC 2010 and later), OS X, and Solaris as is. The current primary build system is GNU autoconf with CMake as an alternative. However, certain desirable configuration options (such as optimization, debugging, and hardening) are not available using CMake, but I am sure the BRL-CAD team could fix that and donate the changes back upstream. Cheers! -Tom
