Abstract:
   JSON (RFC 4627) is an extremely successful format for the
   representation of structured information, supporting Boolean values,
   numbers, strings, arrays, and tables.  Recently, a number of
   applications have started to look for binary representation formats
   that solve a similar problem.  In particular, constrained node
   networks can benefit from such a binary representation format.

   A very successful binary representation that is otherwise comparable
   to JSON is MessagePack.  Recently, a slight modification of
   MessagePack has been defined that allows for distinguishing UTF-8
   strings from binary data.  This draft, as an independent effort,
   documents the resulting BinaryPack format.

   The current version -00 of this document is an early draft that is
   intended to spark further discussion.
