Since its nearly Friday, how about an XML JSON Mutant! In XML a couple of data oriented values might look like: <Name>Value</Name> <Name2>Value2</Name2> In JSON they might look like: Name:Value, Name2:Value2, In Mutant they might look like: <Name:Value> <Name2:Value2> XML with attributes like: <Name attr1="v1" attr2="v2">Value</Name> Would in Mutant be like: <Name attr1="v1" attr2="v2" :Value> (i.e. attributes are placed between the name and the colon) And XML markup like: <Name attr1="v1" attr2="v2">This is <b>Markedup</b> Text</Name> Would be represented in Mutant like: <Name attr1="v1" attr2="v2":This is <b:Markedup> Text> Or another example might be: <Name attr1="v1" :Read <a href="http://...":this> article> You could even make arrays more efficient by saying that if a pair starts with <: (i.e. does not have a name field) it takes the name of the previous pair, like: <Name:Value1><:Value2><:Value3> The benefit is that everybody gets to recognise something of their favoured technology in the resultant solution, and everybody feels equally compromised!
