Description Michael Kay 2013-02-23 15:08:58 UTC
Tim Bray reminds us here

http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2013/02/21/JSON-Lesson

that some variants of JSON permit an object (map) to have duplicate keys. The spec for parse-json() needs to say something about this.
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2013-04-11 16:24:56 UTC
We reviewed this and decided that when parsing JSON we should allow the input to contain duplicates and if they exist, take the last as defined in ECMAScript.
Comment 2 Michael Kay 2013-04-23 10:09:24 UTC
The agreed rule has been added to the draft spec.
