Don't think so. It has simple and great spec.


Simple is good, but what annoys me about JSON is that, unlike XML, you can't publish a schema for it. You're left to the willy-nilly design of the developer and, unless the developer properly documents the JSON format (which seems rare in my experience) you really have no idea what the options are. That said, the same thing is true for XML, except that you CAN create an XSD (and should, in my opinion). Granted, there's some attempts at using JSON to create a JSON schema.

But frankly, chalk up most of my rant to just being old school and liking structures defined, databases with real relationships and normalization, etc.
