See https://golang.org/ref/spec#Import_declarations. By default importing a
package requires using the package name to refer to any symbols it exports;
e.g., "jsonstuff.Prices". You can do "import . jsonstuff" to allow
accessing its public symbols without qualification. Google "go import
unqualified" for some discussions about the pros and cons of unqualified
imports.
