Hi Sean,

hmm, -1 on that name for me, mainly because it seems like geojson mispelt.
Is there any rationale behind it or is it just dropping the J?

I'm pretty much used to ">>> import geojson", and stuck in my ways :)

Since (currently) PCL geojson is based on simplejson, perhaps simplegson or
simplegeojson is a good name?.
My vote would go to 'simplegeojson', says what it is.

But I haven't really got any strong preference for the name. I think it
shouldn't be silly.
Am quite happy for you/others to decide.

Matt
