To do this, I think the draft requires these changes:
- Remove the trailing section of section 1.2, starting with “ECMAscript 5.1
enumerates...” [because the difference no longer exists]
- In section 2:
-- remove “A JSON text is a serialized object or array.”
-- Insert: “A JSON text is a serialized value. Note that certain previous
specifications of JSON constrained a JSON text to be an object or an array.
Implementations which generate only objects or arrays where a JSON text is
called for will be interoperable in the sense that all implementations will
accept these as conforming JSON texts.”
-- Change the JSON-text production to read:
JSON-text = value
