json module was added in python 2.6 but GAE supports 2.5 only.
How can I use it there?

A:
Well you wotn be able to use the standard python library, you will have to use some third party lib such as
- jyson or
- simplejson
At least simplejson works on python 2.4

Ok, now complementary question, how can I use it? I mean, how do I bundle this module with my app ( I'm starting with python as you can see )

I've never done it before, but you GAE does give you the ability to add your own modules,have a look at the GAE FAQ, http://code.google.com/appengine/kb/commontasks.html they describe how it is done there

Great, looking at it. I also create a question specifically for this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2511883/bundle-module-with-app-on-google-app-engine

A:
You can try using yaml module (which is included in GAE) as JSON parser. YAML in recent version is superset of JSON.
>>> import yaml
>>> yaml.load('[false, null, {"x": 1}]')
[False, None, {'x': 1}]
