Bruce,

This has been fixed.  The index file was accidentally overwritten with the
application media types page.

Thank you for letting us know.

Best regards,

Thanks for the information -- the index.html file at the ftp site
has a revision date of 23-Aug-2005, whereas the file served via
HTTP is dated 30-November-2005.  I would have expected the same file
to be served by both protocols, with index.html being the default
for HTTP.  That that is evidently not happening is yet another cause
for concern, as it means that different access methods yield
different registration information.  Possibly the IANA HTTP server
is sending the application data (only) instead of index.html.

I've taken the liberty of copying the lists and IANA to update the
information regarding the registry.

Best regards,
  Bruce Lilly
