Comment 1 Jeff Stern 2002-01-09 15:48:06 UTC

sorry, forgot about java web archives. so:

java archives:
   application/x-java-archive      jar war
   application/x-jar               jar war

also, there already is a powerpoint type in /etc/mime.types, but it's a ppt 
only:

   application/vnd.ms-powerpoint   ppt

so it should just be augmented:

   application/vnd.ms-powerpoint   ppt pps

Comment 2 Michael Schwendt 2002-01-12 18:09:19 UTC

audio/prs.sid      sid

http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/audio/prs.sid

Comment 3 Need Real Name 2002-03-23 00:10:03 UTC

not to mention xls == application/vnd.ms-excel.

go to http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/httpd-2.0/docs/conf/mime.types for
apache's latest mime types (which it appears the file that redhat copies for its
mime.types).  it'd be nice if redhat would just use this file and munge the rpm
extension.

apache says that ftp://ftp.iana.org/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/ is
the place to go for the "official" mimetypes, but it appears to be dead.

Comment 4 Warren Togami 2002-06-25 07:32:56 UTC

application/x-ogg     ogg

It is mentioned at http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis/200008/0040.html by a
xiph.org person.

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2002-09-02 23:30:22 UTC

Please bump this up to null.  It still would be nice to have these in the
default mime.types.

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2003-02-07 21:22:59 UTC

synced with upstream apache in 2.1.13-1.
