The JSON files already in the public directory are now usable by
Javascript and other apps.

It occurs to me that there are other data sets that would be useful as
JSON files.

For example:

LDAP extracts:
- listing of committee names (as per list_committee.pl)
- listings of committee members (list_committee.pl *)
- listing of unix groups (list_unix_group.pl)
- listings of unix group members (list_unix_group.pl *)
- listing of PMC chairs
- listing of people - at least cn, pgp Key. ssh Key. isEnabled (i.e.
valid shell)

asf-authorisation-template extract:
- listing of locally defined groups (mainly podlings)

Some of the above would also be useful as combined files, e.g. the
committee names and members; ditto for unix groups. But for apps that
don't necessarily display all the group membership details at once it
would be useful to have them as separate files as well to reduce the
download sizes.

Some of this information is potentially available from projects.a.o
(though in different combinations).

It occurs to me it might be better to standardise on the whimsy public
area, rather than having multiple sources in different formats.

Thoughts?
