What specification are you referring to?

We use "values" as a first attempt to add extensibility to collections in JSON.  We had a lengthy discussion about this at the summit.  To summarize:  there's no really easy/clean way of doing this as JSON is not extensible.  We're currently exploring other approaches, so values may go away in the long term.  The 1.1 spec is not set in stone in this regard.
