Re: If not JSON, what then ?

IMHO it would be way simpler to specify that the dicts used in http are ordered rather than invent another representation

Anyway, please do not use < or > web people have enough tag soup problems in html (that Will be used with http)

If you're ready to invent binary représentations it's way simple to specify utf8 as encoding than fall again on multiple encoding trap which instead of helping anyone means everyone is incompatible with everyone else in subtle way

Finaly , is hostile to everyone that writes numbers unlike the USA
