I'm still a great fan of XML (esp. after doing a web app with no prewritten html - just xml, xslt and taglibs). As you said however, the impetus for techne is to be lightweight and serialization is a key requirement. I've come across several JSON frameworks such as XStream, Json-lib, JsonTools, Jettison and JSON-RPC. XStream (with Jettison) and Json-lib seem to hold a lot of promise not only for their streaming capabilities but the "seamless" way they interoperate both with Java objects and XML. > > Just a thought, not a strong opinion.
