Re: Starting the ietf-xml-mime mailing list

["Donald E. Eastlake 3rd" <dee3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I consider the original question to have been pretty insulting.  There
is only one set of MIME types for all uses.  The name of the list is
ietf-xml-mime, not email-xml-mime.  If it had been hosted at the W3C,
would non-web uses have been ignored?
