 Hello everyone,
 It seems like python-json should either be renamed of deprecated.

 Meanwhile, all the Python application and modules that use JSON should
 be careful when importing the json module. Here's how I do it. (see the
 code extract below)

 # JSON im# JSON import:
 try:
     import json # python 2.6
 except ImportError:
     import simplejson as json # python 2.4 to 2.5
 try:
     _tmp = json.loads
 except AttributeError:
     import warnings
     import sys
     warnings.warn("Use simplejson, not the old json module.")
     sys.modules.pop('json') # get rid of the bad json module
     import simplejson as json
 }}}
