What is more interesting of this change, is that the new library supports the concept of ‘pluggable’ serializers, both in the request and in the response. In other words, a plugin a can be written (and attached) to automatically convert your object model to JSON (or XML, etc) and back, upon request/response. Although it could have been in earlier versions, it was a pain and hacky, making the new version attractable for this operation. Interesting enough, this spanked many projects[1][2] that take advantage of this ability.<br>
