What is the procedure for registering media types?
PS. Do you consider this a bug or enhancement?
First of all, I'd call this an enhancement, as it would add something that hasn't been there before. OTOH, if bugs get higher priority, we could call it a bug, as a standardized data format should really have a media type defined.
Here is how to register one:
In a nutshell I think it works as follows (I haven't read these RFCs in full detail yet):
I have started to fill out the form at https://github.com/gruninger/Common-Logic/wiki/Media-Types
For security considerations, so far I have the following:
CL ontologies will be published increasingly on the Web. When publishing stuff on the Web, particularly when publishing ontologies in a linked data compliant way, it is good practice that the web server indicates, in the HTTP header, a media type for anything it makes available for download. (I can provide further reasons for this if desired.)
