[Mono-dev] POSTing objects in JSON format...

[Atsushi Eno]

Hello Eduardo,

Thanks, your repro was simple enough to try :) Now I'm getting some 
ASP.NET integration issue that should be fixed. I'll see if further 
issues exist once I fixed the issue I faced now. It may take a while as 
I'm now full with other bugs, but I put your case on my stack.
