Re: mlw-lt-track-ISSUE-54 (ITS MIME Type): ITS MIME Type [MLW-LT Standard Draft]

The delay of this is due to the situation that we (= ITS IG) started the
registration process without a working group maintaining ITS 1.0. Now, with
the MLW-LT WG, we can write a mime type section in ITS 2.0. An important
part of this is that ITS 2.0 is backwards compatibly to ITS 1.0. Exception
is likely to be ruby and directionality, but I think there will be no
impact on this.

Example of the mime type section:

http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGTiny12/mimereg.html

Process for mime type:

http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype

That means: we need to contact the IETF for the mime type when entering
"last call" period; that is in November. I will give myself so that we
don't forget.
