Re: [Json] Consensus on JSON-text (WAS: JSON: remove gap between Ecma-404 and IETF draft)

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
