request for review: text/mizar

[Paul Libbrecht]

Hello Jesse,
(;-))

a few quick comments but I am sure others will have some more.

- I think you should refer to the RFC template you use, please see the mailing list archive
- I think the change controller should be the association of Mizar users', as an institution with an address, and not the  name of a person; an email can complement it for sure!
- type and subtypes are commonly lowercase... why not continue so?
- 8bit... is there a charset there?
- can the specification be indicated with a publicly accessible URL?
- and finally the personal suggestion: I know Mizar is intended to be manipulated by text editors. Could you add two lines in the additional information that say something such as:
    - Window clipboard flavor: "Mizar"
    - Macintosh Uniform Type Identifier: "org.mizar" conforms to "public.text"
  this way applications can offer fragments in multiple formats on the clipboard, one of them, say, being RTF and the other Mizar, for different objectives.
