Be sure to add the new matter-transport/sentient mime type to my Plug/Inventory when it gets sorted out! It's dedicated to remembering all the various formats, plugins, and browser experiences that are being forgotten. However, near-future mime types are also welcome.
Plug/Inventory was originally released in 2003. Although it could use an upgrade, it isn't too dysfunctional for a laptop or desktop browser. https://artcontext.org/act/01/mime/docs/sitemap.php?js=1 Andy Deck On Wed, Apr 2, 2025 at 11:12 AM Bjørn Magnhildøen via NetBehaviour < netbehaviour@lists.netbehaviour.org> wrote: > Btw the human genome project was completed in April (1st?) ten years > after, in 2003.
