[ITA] jq

[ITA] jq

[Andrew Schulman]

I'd like to adopt the jq package. It's currently orphaned from Yaakov. I have an
updated build script ready to push up for the current release (1.6-1), and a new
release (1.7) is expected soon. Andrew

Thanks.

I think Brian was looking at jq, so perhaps he can chime in.

Thanks Jon,

Okay by me - Andrew asked first - I was still looking into the check shtest 
crash in 1.6 and 1.7 rcs from:

	bash $ jq -b -cen --seq '[inputs] == []' <<< 1

and not getting to a definitive cause yet.
