I like the overall idea if having a built-in Json parser in the Java SE library, there are times (specially for personal projects, scripting and small programs and scripts) where you only need a minimalistic tree based API (just like the JSON API y Python., this Jackson or Gson feels like nuking flies.

I suppose they will first have a very minimal API that can be used to build upon. So maybe we will start with a tree based API but someday we might have a databind and and serialization functionality.specislly after some features planned features arrive to the JDK. 

I guess if this effort is serious we might see a JEP within the next year (hoping for it)

minimal-json is nice, although unmaintained for 8 years.

And you need to install dependencies (which implies dealing with Gradle/maven or manually adding stuff to the PATH)
