JSON (JavaScript Object Notation, http://json.org) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. This feature can also be found in Python. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Tcl, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language. This package provides a simple encoder and decoder for JSON notation. It is intended for use with client-side Javascript applications that make use of HTTPRequest to perform server communication functions - data can be encoded into JSON notation for use in a client-side javascript, or decoded from incoming Javascript requests. JSON format is native to Javascript, and can be directly eval()'ed with no further parsing overhead. It builds these binary package: php-services-json - PHP implementaion of json_encode/decode The package appears to be lintian clean. My motivation for maintaining this package is: besides the fact that libjs-edit-area is nice by itself and does what it is meant for, it's also a dependency of eXtplorer that I would like to have uploaded in the archive. The upload would close the following ITP: #561873 The package can be found on ftparchive.gplhost.com: URL: ==== http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian/pool/lenny/main/p/php-services-json/ - Source repository: ==================== deb-src http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian lenny main dget: ==== http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian/pool/lenny/main/p/php-services-json/php-services-json_1.0.1-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
