stream-clone: introduce the notion of an experimental "v3" version We introduce a new experimental "v3" stream protocol, disabled by default. In practice the "v3-exp" protocol introduced in this changeset is identical to v2, but this changeset, lay the groundwork for having a new protocol: configuration, capability exchange, test coverage, etc. The actual protocol work will starts in the coming changesets.

Build Status Code Coverage

This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) (RFC 7049) serialization format.

There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing itself).
