Thanks for clarifying.  The question of whether to have it as a JSON
WG work item was raised by someone else, and I had no idea that it
existed as an Apps area work item.  (Yes, I could and should have
noticed, but having missed it I wouldn't have been able to read your
mind either :)

As for venue, I don't care, and since it's an existing work item for
Apps, that disposes of the question as far as I'm concerned.  Others
here might disagree.

I might volunteer to take it over if there was consensus for a
proposal that I liked.  I'll resend my proposals to apps-discuss.

Thanks,

Nico
