Subject: [PATCH] JSON::Syck does not properly escape/unescape JSON strings
JSON::Syck fails to decode JSON strings with escaped characters correctly. For example: JSON::Syck::load('"http:\/\/example.com\/"') should decode to 'http://example.com/' I patched t/json-basic.t to produce failing tests.
Subject: json-syck.patch

Can you make these tests TODO so that they don't fail, unless you have a patch to fix them that is. Also, see this boring form letter I'm pasting around: (This is a form-reply that isn't specific to your particular report) YAML::Syck has just acquired one new maintainer (me), it still doesn't have anyone that *cares* about it. But I'm willing to help solve your report & release a new version with the fix if it's easy for me. It now has a Git repository at: http://github.com/avar/YAML-Syck If your report is a patch that fixes a problem, great. Please remake the patch against Git by forking that repo and sending me a pull request on GitHub (or an update to this bug if you prefer git-format-patch(1) or some other repo provider..). Make sure to include a test for what you fixed. If your report is some code that fails (and you have a testcase for it) a patch against the test suite to demonstrate that failure would be very useful. It's OK if the test crashes and burns, see Test::More's docs for how to make TODO tests that fail now, but shouldn't. Even if it segfaults perl C<system $^X => qw/ -Mblib -MYAML::Syck .../> or something like that and checking the return value will do.

Greetings, discussing with the other Syck developers, we have a question for you. JSON::XS is 5 times faster than this module. Is there any reason you prefer JSON::Syck to JSON::XS?

No. I prefer JSON::XS. I use JSON::Any, however, in my Net::Twitter module in oder to offer users to select their own preference. If I'm not mistaken, JSON::Syck has been demoted to an optional in JSON::Any if not remove entirely. -Marc
