I still do not quite understand  what to do next, but assume sending in
the IANA form might be a good start.  I have started on a pad to draft
the answers to the form fields on 
<URL: https://pad.sfconservancy.org/p/iana-register-mime-diff >.  Please
help me fill in a good set of answers, and I'll try to submit the
application by the end of the month.
