A new IETF non-working group email list has been created. List address: arcmedia@ietf.org Archive: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/arcmedia/ To subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/arcmedia Purpose: Discuss the creation of a top-level media type for file archives: formats that package files and file metadata into a single data stream. Common semantics apply to all archive formats in ways that are very similar to multipart and message top-level types. At the highest level, an Internet-connected application ought to be able to identify that a particular piece of content is of this type (as opposed to the opaque application type), so it can make decisions about the content that are unique to archives. For additional information, please contact the list administrators.
