Protocol Action: Indicating media features for MIME content to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following Internet-Drafts as Proposed
Standards:
o Indicating media features for MIME content
<draft-ietf-conneg-content-features-03.txt>
o MIME content types in media feature expressions
<draft-ietf-conneg-feature-type-03.txt>
These documents are the product of the Content Negotiation Working Group.
The IESG contact persons are Ned Freed and Patrik Faltstrom.
Technical Summary
The draft-ietf-conneg-content-features is defining a MIME header
which can be used for transfering information according to RFC 2533,
"A syntax for describing media feature sets".
draft-ietf-conneg-feature-type on the other hand, defines a media
feature tag whose value is a MIME content type. This allows the
construction of feature expressions that take account of the MIME
content type of the corresponding data.
Working Group Summary
There was consensus in the working group about version 02 of these
drafts, which were the versions which were last called. The update to
03 was done after taking into account comments during last call,
including from the MIME community.
Protocol Quality
The specifications were reviewed by Patrik Faltstrom.
