Subject: Re: Nested HTTP params on ruby HTTP requests

Hi Brian,

you're not lost I explained myself terrible, my fault ;).

Those example of serializations are produced by my code. I tested it 
only sending post request vs rails, but it worked fine with all proposed 
examples.

Sorry for by bad explanation.

Best regards

Dave
