==== Abstract ====
  : //[[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:j:javascript|JavaScript]] Object Notation (JSON) is a lightweight, text-based,
   language-independent data interchange format.  It was derived from
   the ECMAScript Programming Language Standard.  JSON defines a small
   set of formatting rules for the portable representation of structured
   data.//

  : //This document removes inconsistencies with other specifications of
   JSON, repairs specification errors, and offers experience-based
   [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:i:interoperability|interoperability]] guidance.//
