Regarding #5, assuming that that is the case (that clients would do the
conversion), would you please tell me what kind of libraries would help to do
such conversion by having the root/array names as being proposed? And how this
conversion is made simple by having those elements?
{quote}
One can use http://www.json.org/java/index.html to convert json into an xml
string and then create a java dom object. If the root element is not present
one will get an exception when building a dom object.
