I am sending this request to ask the Ietf-types list for comments on
the Media Type section of the EmotionML specification following the
procedure defined at:

 http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype

The procedure requires Working Groups to ask for ietf-types review when
making a Last Call announcement. I have not been able to find any such
request in the archive. If the Working Group failed to follow the pro-
cedure, it would be helpful if you could put that on the record.

MIME media type name:
---------------------
    application

This is using an outdated template. The current one is in RFC 4288. In
it, some field names are different and some fields are organized in a
different manner.

Optional parameters:
--------------------
    charset

        This parameter has identical semantics to the charset parameter 
of the application/xml media type as specified in [RFC3023] or its 
successor.

Encoding considerations:
------------------------
    By virtue of EmotionML content being XML, it has the same 
considerations when sent as "application/emotionml+xml" as does XML. See 
RFC 3023 (or its successor), section 3.2.

RFC 3023 has boilerplate for this, but the above seems close enough.
