--- Comment #2 from Mikolaj Izdebski <mizdebsk@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
I would *strongly* recommend against reviving this package.

This library used to be free software, but recent releases are non-free
(proprietary software) and as such they cannot be included in Fedora.  All
attempts to convince upstream make free releases failed.

While it would be possible to keep maintaining the old (free) version I think
it's much better for us to migrate to different JSON libraries.  Packaging old
unmaintained libraries like this one while there are many alternatives is
against one of Fedora goals -- innovation.
