[ANN] JSONQuery in the Wild: CloudKit

[Jon Crosby]

JSONQuery has now been implemented in CloudKit's[1] jQuery plugin[2],
thanks to existing work[3] by Kris Zyp and Jason Smith. I have been
maintaining a fork[4] of JSONQuery.js on GitHub in order to add a
large test suite and fix a few minor bugs.

On the server side, CloudKit is also using this same library via a
Ruby/JavaScript bridge called Johnson[5]. The plan is to merge this
new work into the next official CloudKit release. I thought some of
you on this list might want a notice when a new JSONQuery
implementation pops up, thus this post. If you're curious about the
details, please see the list of links included below or the recent
blog post covering the work: http://blog.joncrosby.me/post/94444609/jsonquery-new-api-in-cloudkit-jquery-plugin

Good to here json-query advancing!

Also, I know this is off-topic, but I really like the name (Johnson)
of that project! :-D
(there are still some similar surnames left, Jameson for example)
