Value Serialization Proposal for the New Client Protocol

[Galen O'Sullivan <go...@pivotal.io>]

Hi all,

Some of my colleagues and myself have been working for a while on value 
serialization for the new client protocol. I've put up a proposal for 
how a client would register types. We would love to get some feedback 
from the community on this serialization format. It's not totally 
fleshed out, so if there are details you can think of that we might have 
missed or any other feedback you can give, I would love to hear it!

Thanks,

Galen O'Sullivan

Hi Dan,

That's a good question. In the simplest implementation, we would remove 
and not support JSON, but I suspect that JSON may be very useful for 
users of, say, Node, or just for easier client implementation. In which 
case we should keep it.

Hi Galen,

I put a bunch of comments inline in your wiki page. One general question -
is the a proposal to change the default value encoding with the protobuf
protocol from JSON to this new format?
