Hi Hilaire,<br>
<br>
nope, what i have written before must be inaccuarate. <br>
<br>
There can't be a package maintainer for JSON since JSON.pck.st is
under Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev,<br>
so it is under Juan control. Therefore I suppose the correct way to
propose a change/addition<br>
is to send the fileout here.<br>
<br>
I am not pushing to have it;) this is just a consideration with
Hilaire about the correct <br>
path to follow to ask for a change/addition.<br>
<br>
<br>
bye<br>
Nicola<br>

Now, suppose a day in the future I upgrade Cuis and
'readFromString'<br>
is now defined into 'Json class'. What will happen when i
try to load 'Wunderbar' package ?<br>
<br>
. Do i get an error for method name overlap ?<br>
. If not, is there any criteria by which one method should
be called instead of the other<br>
for example: looking at which method category it belongs to
?<br>
