Clearly it's not obvious, since a number of people are disagreeing. In particular, I think that a media type registration only needs to define how to process existing markup, and how to generate new markup. Unless you can provide a concrete example of how HTML5 fails to do this, I believe the spec as it stands is a suitable MIME type registration. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
