I am not sure anyone other that Bob Ippolito can contribute later versions of simplejson (or patches derived from those versions) to python. ISTM that simplejson distribution is covered by MIT license [1] which is not one of the valid "initial licenses." [2] I was trying to find what was the plan for maintaining json package in stdlib when it was initially included, but the only discussion I could find was a short thread [3] and issue #2750. Neither seem to address the issue of future maintenance.
