       0.0.6 20-Apr-2008 {
            Cleanup and adjustment for changes in the spec. I've left the
            comment support in place for now, though Doug Crockford says
            there are no comments in JSON.

            Checked against the test suite from JSON.org. Test #18 should
            fail, but doesn't. It's a depth limit not enforced here.
        }
        0.0.7 21-Apr-2008 {
            Doug Crockford is confident that comments will not be re-added
            to the JSON spec, so all comment support has been removed.
            The comment rules also handled whitespace, so there have been a
            number of rule changes due to that.

Comments are not part of JSON spec. Set status to "Invalid".

Thanks.
