Description Yuhong Bao 2011-06-10 06:40:54 UTC
The URL listed for the IETF MIME type sniffing draft in the current draft is obsolete. It has been transferred to the websec working group, and the new URL that [MIMESNIFF] needs to point to is this:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-websec-mime-sniff
Comment 1 Michael[tm] Smith 2011-08-04 05:07:00 UTC
mass-moved component to LC1
Comment 2 Anne 2011-08-16 09:36:55 UTC
That draft is obsolete too. I saw somewhere that Adam Barth was giving up on driving this at the IETF.
