Somewhat off-topic: I didn't know you have different JSON
representations. I'm curious and I'd be happy about a few quick
answers...

- Which JSON representations do the API and the XML dump provide? Will
they do so in the future?
- Are the API and XML dump representations stable? Or should we expect
some changes?
