draft-bormann-cbor-04 describes a new binary structured data format called 
Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR), and proposes a media type for 
it.  The media type info in the draft is:

7.3.  Media Type ("MIME Type")

    The Internet media type [RFC6838] for CBOR data is application/cbor.

    Type name: application

    Subtype name: cbor

    Required parameters: n/a

    Optional parameters: n/a

    Encoding considerations:  none; CBOR is a binary format

    Security considerations:  Same as for the base document

    Interoperability considerations: n/a

    Published specification: This document

    Applications that use this media type:  None yet, but it is expected
       that this format will be deployed in many protocols and
       applications.

    Additional information:
      Magic number(s): n/a
      File extension(s): .cbor
      Macintosh file type code(s): n/a
