usage
specification
+MiniJSON is a space-aware binary format for representing arbitary JSON.
+It's however most efficient when dealing with short (less than 16 elements) lists and objects,
+whose all keys are strings.
+
+You should avoid objects with keys different than strings, since they will always use a
+4-byte length field. This is to be improved in a future release.

MiniJSON specification
======================
-MiniJSON is a binary encoding for a subset of JSON that:
-
-* has no keys longer than 255 bytes UTF-8
-* all keys are string
+MiniJSON is a space-aware binary encoding for a JSON.
All data is stored as bigger endian.
