[core] draft-ietf-core-multipart-ct

[Jim Schaad <[e-mail]>]

An interesting question has come up with respect to this content type in the
ACE Working group.

Is there a way to indicate the different content types that one can deal
with inside of this content type.   One can have an ACCEPT option of types
A, B,  C and multipart.  However, there is no way to say which types one is
going to accept in the multipart.  The multipart could return content types
of D, E, F, and G.  However the combination of all 4 may not be what is
returned but instead a combination of two of them.  Thus the client could
understand D and E or D and F but not F and G.

If you say ACCEPT 62, do you accept any combination of nested content types?
Should something about this be placed into the draft?

Also I note that this draft is currently expired and needs to be reposted.
