W3C's IETF liaison is responsible for this as far as W3C-defined formats are concerned and http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype tracks more or less the status. Graham explained the IETF side of the process, although I note that if registration is through an RFC, it need not be a standards track publication. >It would be good to get the turtle one done. The major subtlety here is >default encoding. N-Triples is always ASCII, Turtle is always UTF-8. So >text/plain is fine for .nt and it does not need a registration. The subtype is defined as The simplest and most important subtype of "text" is "plain". This indicates plain text that does not contain any formatting commands or directives. Plain text is intended to be displayed "as-is", that is, no interpretation of embedded formatting commands, font attribute specifications, processing instructions, interpretation directives, or content markup should be necessary for proper display. N-Triples hardly fits in there. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
