          I-D Tag:    draft-ietf-appsawg-xml-mediatypes-10.txt

          URL:        http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7303.txt

This specification standardizes three media types -- application/xml,
application/xml-external-parsed-entity, and application/xml-dtd --
for use in exchanging network entities that are related to the
Extensible Markup Language (XML) while defining text/xml and text/
xml-external-parsed-entity as aliases for the respective application/
types.  This specification also standardizes the '+xml' suffix for
naming media types outside of these five types when those media types
represent XML MIME entities.

This document is a product of the Applications Area Working Group
Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.
