This is the first release for JAULA, a c++ JSON parser/generator library.

This release includes the library, an example on library usage and documentation in rtf, html and LaTex formats.

Release files consists of the usual tarball plus a group of Debian packages containing the library, a parser/checker example, the library headers and documentation compiled on an i386 Debian SID distribution (see release notes for compilation environment details).

Although some work has yet to be done (basically regarding muti-byte character support), library is fully functional and ready for use.

For this release, unicode character support is restricted to 8 bit characters. Any unicode character expressed with the \u notation will be correctly parsed but the value read will only contain the least significant byte. Beyond this, no other bugs/restrictions have been found so far and any comments on this issue will be welcome (project tracker is open for bugs, support and new features requests).
