The IESG has approved the following Internet-Drafts as Proposed Standards: o Indicating media features for MIME content <draft-ietf-conneg-content-features-03.txt> o MIME content types in media feature expressions <draft-ietf-conneg-feature-type-03.txt> These documents are the product of the Content Negotiation Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Ned Freed and Patrik Faltstrom. Technical Summary The draft-ietf-conneg-content-features is defining a MIME header which can be used for transfering information according to RFC 2533, "A syntax for describing media feature sets". draft-ietf-conneg-feature-type on the other hand, defines a media feature tag whose value is a MIME content type. This allows the construction of feature expressions that take account of the MIME content type of the corresponding data. Working Group Summary There was consensus in the working group about version 02 of these drafts, which were the versions which were last called. The update to 03 was done after taking into account comments during last call, including from the MIME community. Protocol Quality The specifications were reviewed by Patrik Faltstrom. RFC-Editor note: Please make the following changes to draft-ietf-conneg-content-features: (a) Remove section 1.2 (b) Change MUST NOT in section 3.2.2 to lower case "must not" (c) In section 7, remove the following text: To be replaced by: "Internet Message Format Standard" P.

(d) In section 7, remove references [6], [7] & [9] as they are not used in the document itself. (e) Please remove "Revision history" last in the document.
