Ah, looking at the source, it's there but not properly escaped, so it won't show up. >- removed application/dime from the SOAP example > >However, re: N3 MIME type being unregistered, I refer you to http:// >www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Notation3.html, and if that doesn't satisfy >you, I urge you to take this issue up with the Director or with Tim >Berners-Lee, which ever seems to you most appropriate. I criticized the lack of a proper Notation3 specification in 2001 on the www-rdf-interest list. Such a specification would be required in order to get the type registered in the IETF tree. It's unlikely that the type would ever be registered though, the encoding of Notation3 resources is UTF-8 while when used without a charset parameter e.g. RFC 2616 requires to assume the ISO-8859-1 encoding. So even if use of unregistered media types is acceptable, the specific type here isn't. A more appropriate type would be e.g. application/vnd.w3c.notation3 which could easily be registered. So no, this does not satisfy me. Regarding I also think using "my.example" in the Host: headers is suboptimal e.g. due to <http://www.w3.org/2001/06/manual/#Translations>. I think a simple "example.org" or similar would be better here. I'm not very fond of using 'www.example' instead; while legal, common practise is to use example.org or www.example.org; is there a good reason not to use that? -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
