Technical Summary
 

   The present document seeks to register a media type for
   Downloadable Sounds (DLS). The DLS format is used to define
   instruments for widely used wavetable synthesizers. The media 
   type defined here is needed to correctly identify DLS
   files when they are served over HTTP, included in multi-part
   documents, or used in other places where media types are used.

Working Group Summary
 
 This is an individual submission.  It was reviewed by the IETF types
 list and changes were made in response to the feedback received.
 
Protocol Quality
 
The document was reviewed for the IESG by Ted Hardie.  The underlying
standards for DLS standards are maintained and defined by two organizations, 
the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) and the Association of the Musical
Electronics Industry (AMEI).
