[OSM-dev] JSON-output for xapi

[Matt Amos]

hi dario,

there's experimental support in cgimap for JSON format, which will
hopefully get enabled at 0.7 time (whenever that is). i've attached an
example of the output in both JSON and XML for comparison. it looks
extremely similar to the examples you've included below, so hopefully
we can work together on this. :-)

cheers,

matt
