JSON Result and Whitespace
How should we print JSON results? JSON ignores whitespace, yet adding
some to the result can make if more readable. Do you think we should
leave whitespace out of our result for add some for readability?
Example without whitespace:
{"software":"VXQuery","version":0.7,"contributors":["Riyafa","Menaka","Chirstina"]}
Example with whitespace:
{ "software" : "VXQuery", "version" : 0.7, "contributors" : [
"Riyafa", "Menaka", "Chirstina" ] }
Thoughts?

Let's start with no whitespace for JSON and later if needed we can
make an optional pretty print version.

Hi,
In my case I considered that if we add whitespaces in the JSON result then
it should be specified where to add them. Also most JSON dumps I have
encountered do not have whitespaces in them.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Riyafa
