I'm confused, is cjson still recommended? Is it still maintained? Its status seems ambiguous based on the PyPi discussion. Furthermore it seems there's a number of issues with cjson that need to be resolved...
- ericflo 16y agoMy understanding is that cjson is not recommended or maintained.
- bdarnell 16y agoWhen I tested cjson (~6 months ago?) it had bugs with escaping - strings containing quotes and/or backslashes would be encoded/decoded incorrectly. Not recommended, unless there have been fixes since then.
- llambda 16y agoBased on the PyPi page for cjson, the comments seem to indicate many problems still persist, notwithstanding new updates that have yet to be pushed
- jchrisa 16y agosounds like the kind of project a decent coder could make big improvements on fast

It's got multiple bugs and misfeatures, and is generally unsuited for anything except impressive benchmarks. It was easier to write my own library, from scratch, than try to fix cjson." -- John Millikin, author of jsonlib
