Dear all, I would like to experience myself with the submission of media types to the IANA, but I have no format of mine to propose. However, Debian released this year a standard for machine-readable copyright files, which have been used informally since 2007. There are parsers that exist to produce or validate these files, and we are currently serving thousands of them through packages.debian.org, our VCS browsers. Obviously, our derivatives also use, modify and distribute these files.
I am therefore considering to submit to the IANA a new media type, for instance text/vnd.debian.copyright, for the machine-readable copyright files following the format at http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/.
