There's currently an inconsistency between the MIME type registration: [[ Additional information: Magic number(s): none Although no byte sequences can be counted on to consistently identify RDF, RDF documents will have the sequence "http:// www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" to identify the RDF namespace. This will usually be towards the top of the document. File extension(s): .rdf Macintosh File Type Code(s): "TEXT" ]] -- http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-swartz-rdfcore-rdfxml-mediatype-02.txt and the RDF syntax specification: [[ It is recommended that RDF/XML files stored on Macintosh HFS file systems be given a file type of "rdf " (all lowercase, with a space character as the fourth letter). ]] -- http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/TR/WD-rdf-syntax-grammar-20030117/#section-MIME-Type Not being a Macintosh user, I don't know which is better, but I think the specs should be consistent. #g ------------------- Graham Klyne <GK@NineByNine.org> PGP: 0FAA 69FF C083 000B A2E9 A131 01B9 1C7A DBCA CB5EReceived on Tuesday, 29 July 2003 11:24:32 EDT
