That is, what's going over the net looks like this (example is for a=20
category):

(self newCategoryWithId: 'aaac9f7d-6d46-471d-96aa-522dc546cbee')
=09created: 3206703930
=09updated:3206703930
=09name: 'Class libraries'
=09summary: 'Class libraries for Squeak to use for development'
=09url: ''
=09mandatory: false
=09parentId: nil!

Note that this could easily be represented in YAML...
