RE: Update the ttml iana media registration

Thierry-

Thanks.  The procedures reference below are more about the W3C procedures and indeed are written assuming a Rec.  However: it does not explicitly require a Rec.  And, if you look at the registration table at the bottom, there appear to be several Note source documents, e.g.: http://www.w3.org/TeamSubmission/2011/SUBM-turtle-20110328/ 

Why can't we do that?

Regards,

 Mike

Subject: Update the ttml iana media registration

Nigel,




My understanding is that once a media type has been published by the IANA, the owner may request a change to its definition. The same procedure that would be appropriate for the original registration request is used to process a change request.

So my guess is that the registration change should be done for REC.

Therefore, according to the registration process, a few months prior to Candidate Recommendation, we should start the process (like sending an email to the mailing list media-types@ietf.org asking for comments on the Media Type section of the specification ..., etc.)

But in CR and PR some specific information wording must be provided in the spec.

For more information, see the Registration process for IANA.

Wendy Seltzer and Philippe Le Hégaret, are the W3C IETF liaisons, and they will check with the IESG.
