hello core people,

as of experimenting with coap (especially core-interfaces), i'd like to
transfer sensor data as application/senml+json. however, i didn't find
any attempt to register that mime type at the content-format registry
set up in draft-ietf-core-coap-13 -- even though extensive use thereof
is made in the examples in draft-shelby-core-interfaces-03.

* is there a type in use even though it's not yet published?

* if not, what should i use until one gets allocated?

* which document do i need to watch for a future allocation? (i'd assume
  draft-jennings-senml-10)

* (being new here,) is this list the right place for such questions?

* researching current use, i found a glitch in
  draft-shelby-core-interfaces-03 section 5.8 -- given what the response
  looks like, the answer to the GET request should be typed
  application/link-format. are there better places to report such things
  than here?

best regards
chrysn
