Robin Cover pointed me to:
http://www.sil.org/sgml/xml.html#xmlMediaTypes
Which, in addition to providing all kinds of useful background, pointed me to
an Internet Society Internet Draft on "XML Media Types" by E.J. Whitehead and
Murata Makoto.
ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-whitehead-mime-xml-04.txt
It's an excellent draft, and makes clear that character encoding issues need
to be addressed in transfers. The only question I have is that they're
registering text/xml and application/xml. Are we expecting all XML-encoded
files to transfer under these two MIME types, or will more specific MIME types
emerge for particular types of XML documents?
