--- Comment #3 from Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) legoktm.wikipedia@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Mark Vandenberg from comment #2)
It looks like the problem mentioned in comment 1 is no longer an problem, as the JSON now includes the mainsnak datatype, whereas I assume it didnt previously based on comment 1.
Awesome!
If I understand this correctly, any time the JSON parser finds a 'datatype' in a snak, it can use that instead of doing a lookup. The JSON *may* not include this, in which a lookup is required, and if a lookup isnt possible then the code should raise an appropriate exception.
Yup, sounds good.
