Re: [Json] JSON Content Rules -05

[Daniel Parker <[e-mail]>]

Regarding JCR - 05

http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-newton-json-content-rules-05.txt

Is there anything about the JCR grammar that requires the colon character
to be used as a prefix to a value rule, as opposed to simply being a
name-rule separator in an object rule?

For example, to my eye, the example

{

"Image" {
         width, height, "Title" :string,
         "Thumbnail" { width, height, "Url" :uri },
         "IDs" [ *:integer ]
       }
}

width "Width" : 0..1280
height "Height" : 0..1024

would look more "JSON like" written as

{

"Image" {
         width, height, "Title" :string,
         "Thumbnail" : { width, height, "Url" :uri },
         "IDs" [ *integer ]
       }
}

width "Width" : 0..1280
height "Height" : 0..1024

and similarly

the_bradys [ parents, children ]
    children ( :"Greg", :"Marsha", :"Bobby", :"Jan" )

       parents ( :"Mike", :"Carol" )

would look more "JSON like" written as

the_bradys [ parents, children ]
      children ("Greg", "Marsha", "Bobby", "Jan" )
       parents ( "Mike", "Carol" ).
