Hi Pierre,

First of all very cool. I was looking at couple of libs for serializing, and also found msgpack intriguing.

I've actually semi-stared lua only implementation in luajit, it's not reference lua compatible, but it could be made (but probably the performance would be worse, as we are talking about very low level encoding).

MessagePack is written.

I have been using it for a while but it didn't support Maps
serialization / deserialization until today. Now it does, which
makes it a viable alternative to MPLua [2].

Feel free to test it and give feedback!
