I'm obviously "somewhat" biased but how about evaluating my proposal which addresses
two entirely different topics:

- The ability to sign JSON objects in a way that mimics XML DSig but without bringing
   in a complex canonicalization scheme
- Predictive serialization which most developers are likely to appreciate

Note: There's no need defining a specific signature scheme, it is enough creating a
foundation for such work.

JWS will be a hard sell to the business community who are slowly but surely converting
from XML and EDI to JSON.  They shouldn't have to develop their own JSON standards!
