Paul, please send a slightly-revised version of the Core WG
endorsement, with no version number I think, to the address in the

The IESG has received a request from the Applications Area Working Group
WG (appsawg) to consider the following document:
- 'XML Media Types'
<draft-ietf-appsawg-xml-mediatypes-09.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2014-03-17. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
Abstract
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.
Note that this document has normative references to eight W3C documents,
as well as two Informational RFCs. The Informational RFCs are:
1. RFC 2781, "UTF-16, an encoding of ISO 10646"
2. RFC 6839, "Additional Media Type Structured Syntax Suffixes"
Both of those documents should be added to the downref registry (http://trac.tools.ietf.org/group/iesg/trac/wiki/DownrefRegistry) after this last
call completes.
The file can be obtained via
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-appsawg-xml-mediatypes/
Once IESG discussion begins, it can be tracked via
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-appsawg-xml-mediatypes/ballot/
No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
