Subject: Last Call for "Assigning Media Types to Binary Data in XML"


The Web Services Description Working Group and the XML Protocol Working
Group have jointly published a Last Call document entitled "Assigning
Media Types to Binary Data in XML" [1].  

The specification addresses the need to indicate the media type
associated with binary element content in an XML document and the need
to specify, in XML Schema, the expected media type(s) associated with
binary element content. It is expected that the additional information
about the media type will be used for optimizing the handling of binary
data that is part of a Web services message.  It may also have utility
outside this domain.

After all comments have been addressed (the Last Call period ends Nov.
24th) the two Working Groups plan to issue this specification jointly as
a W3C Working Group Note.

We especially ask for a review from the following Working Groups:

- XML Schema
- I18N
- SVG

If review by these groups cannot be completed by the 24th of November,
please let us know by then when to expect comments and we'll make every
effort to accommodate.
