I don't know how many has seen this, but it's pretty cool.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format.

http://www.crockford.com/JSON/index.html

It is used for Ajax applications to transfer data instead of xml. It uses repr() versions of standard python objects like dicts, lists, string, numbers etc. to transfer data.

It is really simple to generate for Python programmers, so it is very simple to use in Zope too.

this is used at 100% and more in cpsskins for Zope3 (cf. z3lab.org). You might also have a look at Jim Washington's 'jsonserver' for Zope3 and its implementation for Zope2 http://zif.hill-street.net/jsonserver /JM
