= GeniusWebPython =

''GeniusWeb'' is an open architecture for negotiation via the internet. The core of the architecture is a JSON based communication protocol that standardizes the communication messages comprising a negotiation. 

This project contains a python-based implementation of GeniusWeb core objects. It allows easy (de)serialization of many data structures needed for negotiation in GeniusWeb. Some data structures have not yet been implemented in GeniusWebPython, this will be done as needed. A full reference implementation is available [https://tracinsy.ewi.tudelft.nl/pubtrac/GeniusWeb here]
