Irene: I don't have any further issues. However, considering the number of changes to the spec, I think it would make sense to update the spec with these changes?

That isn't true. There is an obvious relationship - they both relate to MIME types. The answer Jerry gave to this question was better: gmime is a library to parse mime (mail) and mbox file, gnome-mime-data, freedesktop mime spec are about file types. Currently, there are several application that use gmime. Balsa ( a mail client for gnome), Pan ( a newsreader), DBMail( a group of programs that enable the possiblilty of storing and retrieving mail messages from a database) Beagle (for indexing email) tracker (indexing email) I think this answer could go into section 4.1 to make the case more clear.
