A. The application/wspolicy+xml Media Type
This appendix defines the "application/wspolicy+xml" media type which
can be used to describe Web Services Policy documents serialized as XML.
Either wsp:Policy or wsp:PolicyAttachment could be the root element of
such a document.

Required parameters:

        This parameter has identical semantics to the charset parameter

        This document and Web Services Policy Attachment.
        
Applications which use this media type:
        
        This new media type is being registered to allow for deployment
        of Web Services Policy and references to Web Services Policy on
        the World Wide Web.
