Has anyone used Perl's data notation as a web-consumable data format?
Yes, it does have a lot of overlap with JSON. It looks a bit like JSON, too. The bare keywords and the => are just syntactic sugar, but in some cases the data looks cleaner than JSON, doesn't it? And it can (potentially) have referenced data shared between two structures -- perhaps not critically important for the web, but potentially useful. Right?
An app I had written could dump its output to XML, JSON, YAML, or Perl's data notation... it's not difficult to write an emitter for it. And I know the ecological niche is small, and JSON pretty much has it sewn up. I'm just asking for the sake of asking. In other words, don't bite my head off.
