+_spray-json_ is a lightweight, clean and efficient [JSON] implementation in Scala.
 
 It sports the following features:
   
 * Simple immutable model of the JSON language elements
-* An efficient JSON PEG parser (implemented with [parboiled][])
+* An efficient JSON PEG parser (implemented with [parboiled])
 * Choice of either compact or pretty JSON-to-string printing
 * Type-class based (de)serialization of custom objects (no reflection, no intrusion)

 The latest release is `1.0.0`.
 It's built against Scala 2.9.0-1, but backporting to 2.8.1 is no problem (let me know if you need a 2.8.1 compatible version).

 ### JsonProtocol
 
-_spray-json_ uses [SJSON][]s Scala-idiomatic type-class-based approach to connect an existing type `T` with the logic how to (de)serialize its instances to and from JSON. (In fact _spray-json_ even reuses [SJSON][] code, see the 'Credits' section below).

 This approach has the advantage of not requiring any change (or even access) to `T`s source code. All (de)serialization
 logic is attached 'from the outside'. There is no reflection involved, so the resulting conversions are fast. Scalas excellent type inference reduces verbosity and boilerplate to a minimum, while the Scala compiler will make sure at compile time that you provided all required (de)serialization logic.
