The Working Group has yet to decide whether it wants to, say, allow
strings at the top level of application/json resources, so proposals
for text detailing differences between "ECMA-JSON" and what this WG
is going to define are premature. People who think strings should be
allowed at the top level would not speak up in this thread, so the
thread is not useful for finding consensus around substantive issues.
