Before pushing Sharlatan's patch, I changed the synopsis to "Common Lisp
JSON reading and writing library". I also didn't know that word, found
that it was probably a reference to a cat-looking warrior from space in
a series of science fiction novels, and concluded that it was not
really related to JSON processing.
