i'd like to take this moment to vote against .fla as mapped to flac. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=filetype%3Afla [FLASH] <p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="13" color="#000000 ... File Format: Shockwave Flash <p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="13" color="#000000">Central America</ font></p> <p align="left"><font face="Century Gothic" size="13" ... www.babewithabackpack.com/world_flash.fla - Similar pages - Note this I'm told this is a flash creator format instead of the .swf format we're used to, but it's clearly flash and not flac. If someone decides to make a widget which does some form of flash authoring (and hopefully adobe would move their platform to our standard), then i don't want to make life more difficult for them. note that flac isn't supported in the browsers i have today, so standardizing it is like standardizing a mime type for mng. if we must support a mime type for audio, let it be .wav and .wave, those are fairly unambiguous (although codec support should be clearly marked as not guaranteed)
