I intend to submit the following media type registration to the IESG for registration with IANA. However, before then I would welcome community review and feedback on the proposed registration. If you see any problems, please let me know.
Assuming that the appropriate form for such a media type registration would be an RFC-style document I wrote one up using the xml2rfc syntax and published it here:
http://www.isotopicmaps.org/sam/xtm-rfc.html
The actual registration part is included below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a media type registration as defined in RFC 4288, "Media Type
Specifications and Registration Procedures" [RFC4288].
*MIME media type name:* application
*MIME subtype name:* xtm+xml
*Required parameters:* none
*Optional parameters:* charset
Same as charset parameter of application/xml, defined in RFC 3023
[RFC3023].
*Encoding considerations:* Same as encoding considerations of
application/xml, defined in RFC 3023 [RFC3023].
*Security considerations:* See Section 5.
*Interoperability considerations:* _NEED TO WRITE THIS PART_
*Published specification:* See the Topic Maps Data Model [ISO13250-2]
and the XTM specification [ISO13250-3].
*Applications which use this media type:* XTM is device-, platform-,
and vendor-neutral and is supported by a range of applications and
web services.
*Magic number(s):* none
Although no byte sequences can be counted on to consistently identify
XTM, XTM documents will have the sequence
"http://www.topicmaps.org/xtm/" to identify the XTM namespace. This
will usually be near the top of the document.
*File extensions(s):* .xtm
*Macintosh File Type Code(s):* "xtm "
*For further information:* contact the editors, Lars Marius Garshol
<larsga at garshol.priv.no> and Graham Moore
<graham.moore at networkedplanet.com>, or ISO SC34. More information
may be found on the website of ISO SC34 WG3:
<http://www.isotopicmaps.org>.
*Intended usage:* COMMON
*Author/Change controller:* The XTM standard was produced by ISO
SC34, which has change control over the standard.
