Hello Larry,

It's been emphasized that there is no reason why third parties can't register
media types if they're wanted. So there should be no barrier to specifying
content-type for fonts, if that's what is wanted.
Why is it a "lost cause" when no one even tried?
My guess is that Adobe has a font type or two (I might be wrong; in that
case, appologies). So why don't you give it a try; it wouldn't even be a
third-party registration in that case.
Regards, Martin.

So a specific use case for this could be helpful - and a volunteer to
provide input on by which criteria exactly fonts should be sniffed and
help with writing up the font mime-type for the registry (I can help
with the latter).
The use case is @font-face, CSS' font linking feature. The criteria I have
emailed to this list before:
