Oasis office format MIME type

I have:

application/vnd.sun.xml.impress.template;ooffice %s
application/vnd.sun.xml.draw;ooffice %s
application/vnd.stardivision.draw;ooffice %s
application/x-stardraw;ooffice %s

In my .mailcap. But that doesn't look very official. (vendor sun?)

I haven't found an officially registered MIME type for Open office.
is there a process afoot to do this?


I've also come to realize that systems that are abusing the
application/octet-stream, and then expecting applications to look at the
file extension are contributing to risk due to virus/trojan spam.

That is because users can not "conveniently" turn off the extension ->
application mapping.
