+The web urls were included in the json output, but it seems some json
+parsers, including the one you're using, only show the last value of an
+attribute when multiple values are repeated, as happened when there were
+both web and other remotes with urls.
+
+Anyway, I've updated the json output to include the url list inside the
+remote's record.
