Description gil cattaneo 2013-01-14 02:52:22 UTC

Spec URL: http://gil.fedorapeople.org/json.spec
SRPM URL: http://gil.fedorapeople.org/json-20121113-1.fc18.src.rpm
Description: 
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) 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. 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, Python, and many others.

These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

How does this relate to the following package:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/json

It was retired 2012-08-06 because of a supposedly dead upstream. If the situation has changed then please follow the unretire procedure.
