Hi David,

Welcome to the list, and thanks for this innovative contribution!

I do have one concern, though. JSON sounds an awful lot like YAML and (especially around here) XOXO:

http://microformats.org/wiki/xoxo
http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2005-September/001020.html

My preference would be to use XOXO as the transport, so that *all* intermediate data is legal HTML. Would that be possible/desirable within the JSON metaphor? If not, why not?


Hi Ernie,

JSON is the real deal -- there's lots of people using and many sites are already supporting it (for example [1]). Furthermore, the technique that JSON uses to load data -- dynamic script loading -- will only work if the result is valid Javascript.

Regards, etc...
