The IANA registry is broken for historical reasons. They accepted container types as image/, video/, audio/, because there were used so in past. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1608#c7 http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/ https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1608#c5 I see possible solution in multipart/x-tiff, multipart/x-quicktime for container MIME types and using of image/tiff and video/quicktime only for files with guaranteed contents. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE CR, s. r. o. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Drahobejlova 27 tel: +420 296 542 382 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 296 542 374 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
