Discussed at the 8/24/2022 working meeting. No comments, but clarified that changing mime_type
to media_type
is a breaking change.
Thanks for the improvements. +1
We should not talk about breaking changes at this point. But meaningful changes and updates that will make the specification a better product. As long as the changes are justified and improve the product should be made as soon as possible. This will bring us closer to releasing a standard.
Let's change mime type to media type
Breaking changes are hard but I think there's a consensus that the affected community currently would be small and we've already identified three breaking changes, with a number of issues on the LS still not addressed. I don't know as it's really much of a choice at this point.
Approved for merging at 7 September 2022 working meeting.
