Hi Rodney (and xdg list, it might be a good read), I can't do all of them at once (and it's getting late), so here's a start of suggestions for the naming spec, in email form, for the mimetypes category.
--- What I consider important --- * font-x-generic * package-x-generic Those are a bit problematic to me as you use IANA/fd.o mimetype compliant names, but these two aren't - IANA doesn't have any "font" or "package" categories. I would prefer these to be named x-font-generic and x-package-generic. --- Wishlist: what I would like to see (but can live without) --- * application-x-zerosize The icon used for empty files. * x-unknown The icon used for files whose type cannot be determined. --- Minor: might stay out of the spec, I don't care --- * application-octet-stream The icon used for generic binary files. --- Other stuff --- * application-certificate Only in Tango (so you don't have to fix this in the spec), but same issue: there is no application/certificate mimetype, thus the icon should rather be named application-x-certificate or something in that vein. Please keep me up to date when you change something. More to come, Jakob P.S.: is there any way to subscribe to CVS changes of the spec? _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
