Request for approval/registration of application/xenc+xml

Hello Scott,

This is a request from W3C, for review and approval by the IESG
and subsequent registration by IANA of the MIME media type
application/xenc+xml.

The registration template for this media type can be found in
the XML Encryption Syntax and Processing specification, which
is a W3C Recommendation, in Section 8:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core/#sec-MediaType. This is a pointer
to the last version of this specification.
A pointer to the current version is
http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/REC-xmlenc-core-20021210/#sec-MediaType.

On our side, this registration is following the process outlined at
http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype.html#Planned, but
due to some timing issues, the specification in question is already
at the Recommedation stage. If we have to make corrections, we plan
to do so through errata.

The registration proposal has been discussed on the ietf-types
list, and the registration information has been improved based
on this input.

When the registration is approved, or for questions, please make
sure that you copy Jose Kahan <jose.kahan@w3.org> and Dan Connolly 
<connolly@w3.org>.

Regards,    Martin.
