Items NOT to convert to json

Some stationxml elements are deprecated, or should be, and so might be better to not add to the json specification.

See StationXML, Potential Future Changes.

Some examples:

  • <FDSNStationXML> <Source> and <FDSNStationXML> <Sender>, maybe redundant
  • <Network> <TotalNumberStations>
  • <Network> <SelectedNumberStations>
  • <Station> <CreationDate>
  • <Station> <TerminationDate>
  • <Station> <SelectedNumberChannels>
  • <Channel> <Type>

MB: I hope we can find a way not to re-spec the JSON format, but to derive from stationxml and import all its deprecations. I am much more in favor to cleanup things inplace than to generate new specs to correct old-not-so-good-decisions!!
