This is a forwarded message From: Bruce Lilly <blilly@erols.com> To: webmaster@iana.org Date: Sunday, December 11, 2005, 3:39:58 PM Subject: Problem with IANA MIME media types registry ===8<==============Original message text=============== [CC'd to IETF discussion list and ietf-types discussion list] Hello, Recent changes to the page at http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html accessed via the link from the IANA Assigned numbers page http://www.iana.org/numbers.html#M have rendered the registry of assigned media types useless. Prior to the recent change, the media types registry listed the assigned MIME top-level media types, viz. application, audio, image, message, model, multipart, text, and video. Since the change, only the application top-level type is listed (audio, image, message, model, multipart, text, and video have vanished without a trace) and superfluous repetition of the application subtypes listed in http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/application has appeared (these of course are not top-level media types). Could you please investigate what has gone awry and regenerate a page that provides top-level media types. ===8<===========End of original message text=========== Forwarded because my earlier assertion that things were fine now they had stable URIs for media types seems to be premature. What was formerly under application has now moved up a level and the rest has disappeared. Or rather, become unlinked. For example http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/image/ is still there, just not linked anywhere. I suspect its just an update glitch, but anyway.... -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Chair, W3C SVG Working Group W3C Graphics Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG
