One thing to figure out here is should the package be called 'cef' or 'casparcg-cef'? I called the one in the ppa 'casparcg-cef' to ensure that it wont conflict with...

I'm still not sure whether I agree that libcef being reusable is good, or whether I prefer to have it isolated/namespaced..

I think the reason I did this is that sending `{ abc: undefined }` over IPC will likely result in `abc` disappearing from the object entirely. Passing it as an...

@thedist That all sounds fine with me. I am still curious on this though: > What would be the impact of leaving the object -> array conversion inside module-base, and...

I was curious about my questions here, so have taken a very quick look into some synthetic tests. It looks like doing a pre-stringify would be faster than letting ejson...
