json ann

Greetings

Lately was thinking,  at the back of my head would JSON ever become a W3C
recommendation/standard , but I was not sure if it was a sensible thought.

Today I came across this announcement

http://www.w3.org/blog/SW/2013/09/11/json-ld-feature-freeze-and-call-for-implementation/

Could someone kindly comment/explain  what does thsi mean.if this could be
a step toward JSON becoming a W3C standard,

thank you
