I'm not a MIME expert - perhaps the format name should instead >be "application/directory", i.e., > m=application/directory <port> SAP application/sdp is registered - so should it be a subtype e.g. application/sdp.directory ? Or perhaps in the grander scheme, with multipart MIME messages, perhaps multipart/sdp(.directory) should be registered, which would then look similar to multipart emails (with each part containing its own specific MIME typed element). Isn't a (sdp) directory really just a multipart container ? See http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/ >?? Is this consistent with the use of MIME to specify other (existing) >kinds of 'directory' - e.g., LDAP? (I can imagine that in the future we >might also want to allow for SDP descriptions that describe LDAP >directories.) Anyway, I'll make sure to raise this issue in Adelaide. There's a text/directory (rfc2425) registered, which seems to be quite extensible as well. That in turn can have multipart components? I can't find a MIME type that just refers to LDAP - that's really a transport (directory access) rather than a container.
