Chris,
A couple of months ago, I completed a GML Viewer as part of an OGC
Testbed. (Press release and download from
http://communitymapbuilder.org/display/MAP/GML+Viewer+1.0 )
One of our key findings was that JSON would be a better transfer format
for Browsers as XML parsing took ~ 10 times as long as SVG/VML rendering.
What next: OGC members have suggested writing a white paper explaining
the advantages of JSON over GML, after which JSON might become
incorporated as an alternative format for OGC standards. (Another thing
on my todo list).
As a side note, I think the Chris Holmes has included JSON as an output
format for Geoserver.

Hi,
http://jdil.org describes a simple scheme for implementing namespaced
vocabularies (including RDF vocabularies) in JSON. The idea is
general, but the examples (and our own applications here at Platial)
are in the Geo domain.
