The Accept: header pref support is now checked in and working. This makes
it much easier for us to change the Accept: header in future following
this consultation process. The current header is:
Accept: text/xml;q=1, text/html;q=0.9, image/png;q=1, image/jpeg;q=1,
image/gif;q=0.9, text/plain;q=0.8, text/css;q=1, */*;q=0.01
Brendan has made the point that MNG needs to be in there; we also need
application/xml and application/xml+xhtml too.
Eric, Philipp - who exactly do we have to ask or where to we have to post
to get W3C input on a suggested header? We need to bear in mind the
requirement to keep it short.
One other question: is application/xml supposed to be treated as a more
general (as in the relationship between image/* and image/gif) form of
types like application/xml+xhtml ? How does that work?
