You're right, I didn't think about it.
I will take some time aside and read some of the archive.

I like this approach, and it's exactly why we also think we need a JSON
data interchange format for networks, other protocols for network
already exist and are very detailed, but too complex and a pain to work
with.

One last question: is this
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-butler-geojson-04.txt finalized/approved?
Am I wrong or it took quite some years to submit it to the IETF? Was a
deliberate choice or it was just because nobody had time before?

Thank you very much
