This is SO SO important. I've had to convert JSON to XML and vice versa so many times in order to transfer data to and from legacy code components. No, I don't think an ideal world involves any sort of communication where one side speaks JSON and the other speaks XML, but the current world very much needs a standardization like this.
- dragonwriter 12y agoInsofar as the world needs a JSON->XML conversion standard, it needs one that handles all legal JSON, which this doesn't (it could if it used the same approach to target XML 1.1 instead of XML 1.0, or it could if it used a slightly more complex representation of JSON strings in the XML 1.0, but instead it chose to be a conversion for a restricted XML-1.0-friendly subset of JSON.)
