Does it actually need improvement? I can't actually say, but I assume it keeps changing for the better - albeit slowly. I wasn't thinking of specific improvements, just the idea of continuous improvement in general... Hmm. I cannot believe in the notion of "continuous improvement"; I'd guess that it is rather "continuous change". I can see three possible areas of improvment: 1. Bugs: if there are any, they should clearly be fixed. However, JSON is a simple format, so the implementation should be able to converge to something fairly correct quickly. 2. Performance: there is always room for performance improvements. However, I strongly recommend to not bother unless a severe bottleneck can be demonstrated. Well, there was a 5x speedup demonstrated comparing simplejson to the standard library json module. No. Yes.
