New submission from Gabriel Genellina <gagsl-...@yahoo.com.ar>: The mimetypes module has a built-in default database, and, in addition, reads mime.types files from a list of standard places (/etc/mime.types by example) On Windows, those files usually don't even present; MIME information is stored in the registry instead. Until now, the mimetypes module just ignored those settings; this patch adds support for reading the MIME database from the Windows registry.
