I have been using a modified version an old FC4 public AMI, which is too good to be deserted with all the software I have installed. For a project, I needed support for JSON. Javascript Object Notation or JSON is a way of passing string representation of Javascript objects to the user-agents. Straight-through serialization of Javascript objects and transmittal of such is much more compact than passing XML and then converting them to Javscript objects.
