Dear Boost developers,
Congratulations on being accepted as a mentoring organization. I'd like to work on Boost serialization library for this year Google Summer of Code. The feature I'd like, JSON archives, was suggested last year, but to my knowledge wasn't implemented. As part of my college project I have written LR(1) parsers for BBCode and Wiki Creole markup using JavaCup/JFlex, and also LL parser for BBCode using ANTLR. I'm not (jet) comfortable with Boost.Spirit, but since I'm quite familiar with (E)BNF notation, I can learn it quickly. I'd like to know are you still interested in this proposal and will there be mentor for me, if I get accepted?
There was some other talk about this: using YAML/XML archives to construct a json/xml-rpc mechanism with boost::serialization and boost::asio. Have you reviewed the code from last year's SOC? http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code-2008-boost/downloads/list -t
