DISCLAIMER: These notes are from the defunct k8 project which precedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26! The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as such all of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is no longer my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it.

Awake. Last night I was thinking about JSON, my project files are in JSON and I even have a JSON reader written purely in shell scripts, however that is a bit messy. It really does not have to be in JSON. I can remove the dependency on it and keep the JSR353 library since that is nearly completely written (I just have to implement one more thing). Most of the code does not exactly rely on the JSON nature of the project files. So I only really need to change the database input and output files. Then I need to adjust the shell scripts to the new syntax. Moving away from JSON would be far simpler, and faster.

Rather than convert by hand, I should use my pre-existing shell scripts to handle the conversion for me.

The new PKI files are much simpler to parse and require no complex loops and such, so on this sluggish laptop the packages are generated much faster than before.

Suppose I need a break of sorts anyway.
