[ANN] guile-json 3.3.0 released

[Aleix Conchillo Flaqué]

Hi,

I'm pleased to announce guile-json 3.3.0. This new version comes with a few
improvements: guile-json will now throw an exception if the native scheme
value used to build a JSON document is invalid (this is done before
printing any JSON). Also, an additional key argument #:validate can be
given to ignore the validation in the case performance is important and the
data is known to be valid. Empty JSON array slots are also considered
invalid, before they were generating an invalid scheme representation. A
few more details can be found on the NEWS file.

Best,

Aleix

Thanks, this is great!  I'm curious though why you didn't take up my
suggestion of using 'null rather than #nil, given the points I raised at <
https://github.com/aconchillo/guile-json/issues/31>.

Thanks!

This is another 3.x release so I didn't want to introduce any breaking
change and I didn't have time for a 4.0 release. Also, guile-json doesn't
have many users as far as I know, but at least I know a big one which is
Guix. I'm not sure if they use symbols as keys, but I'd like to do some
research first. I'll update that issue with my findings, it might take a
while though.

Best,

Aleix
