Data in form of event (position data and time) converted to python dict - try output to JSON, FITS, etc. data types to try robustness/usefulness

RSS 2.0 as well, I guess.

Pull request #8 addresses JSON. Please review the patch.

@RaoOfPhysics: Do you mean the XML 1.0 specification?

@onyb: Could be! @pingud98 made the suggestion, perhaps he knows the right answer.

The JSON implementation is looking good. FITS could be the next one.

I was thinking something along the lines of RSS 2.0. There used to be a website called Pachube (back in 2008) that developed an XML schema called EEML (Extended Environments Markup Language) for distributed IOT sensors. It's quite close to what we're trying to do here, check out http://www.eeml.org/#specification

@pingud98: Might be better to carry a discussion on Gitter: https://gitter.im/OpenCosmics/fits-evaluation

@Tontonis, @berghaus, @onyb and @SirHalie are in there.
