NEW: ruby-json

[Jeremy Evans-2]

This is a implementation of the JSON specification according to RFC 4627
for ruby. You can think of it as a low fat alternative to XML, if you
want to store data to disk or transmit it over a network rather than use
a verbose markup language.

we already have ruby-mysql, ruby-hpricot, and ruby-json in the tree.

if you are submitting updates to them, please submit unified diffs
against cvs.

I checked the tree for all of these ports before submitting them,
using make search key=.  My mistake was I did not realize that you
need to run make index first in order to get accurate information.
The INDEX file is updated occasionally, but the script I was using to
update the ports tree called cvs up on each category directory (e.g.
/usr/ports/databases) instead of the top level directory (/usr/ports),
so I never got updates to the INDEX file.  I realize now that that
causes problems.  Sorry for the spam.
