There's always an opportunity for publishing -01. ;-)

I agree that a range of approaches might be appropriate among JSON-using 
communities -- pretty much the same range of approaches mentioned in the 
x- draft:

        implementation-specific and
        private-use parameters could at least incorporate the
        organization's name (e.g., "ExampleInc-foo" or, consistent with
        [RFC4288], "VND.ExampleInc.foo") or primary domain name (e.g.,
        "com.example.foo" or a Uniform Resource Identifier [RFC3986] such
        as "http://example.com/foo").

I'll work with my co-authors to submit -01 next week or soon thereafter.

Peter
