While it might be interesting to have/find/write a tool that puts an HTTP/JSON layer around the DB connection, it's pretty much entirely unrelated to the proposed project of creating a json type with PostgreSQL analagous to the xml type we already have, which is what the OP is proposing to do. Personally, I suspect that a JSON type is both a more interesting project to work on and a more useful result for this community. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
