JSON.parse conflicts with Main.parse

julia> using JSON
Warning: using JSON.parse in module Main conflicts with an existing identifier.

The function parse in Main parses a string containing Julia code to an AST Expr.)

Probably the best solution is to simply not export it, so that users call it as JSON.parse. Then, for symmetry, you could rename print_to_json to JSON.print (and not export print).

(On the subject of renaming, it seems more Julian to simply have json(x) instead of to_json(x).)

I agree with each of these points. parse and to_json have bugged me for awhile.
