+%description
+JSON.simple is a simple Java toolkit for JSON. You can use JSON.simple
+to encode or decode JSON text.
+ * Full compliance with JSON specification (RFC4627) and reliable
+ * Provides multiple functionalities such as encode, decode/parse
+ and escape JSON text while keeping the library lightweight
+ * Flexible, simple and easy to use by reusing Map and List interfaces
+ * Supports streaming output of JSON text
+ * Stoppable SAX-like interface for streaming input of JSON text
+ * Heap based parser
+ * High performance (see performance testing)
+ * No dependency on external libraries
+ * Both of the source code and the binary are JDK1.2 compatible
