Description Abel Braaksma 2018-04-09 15:09:49 UTC 
Currently, the section on media-type in Section 26 Serialization says:

> The value of the media-type attribute provides the value of the media-type 
> parameter to the serialization method. The default value is text/xml in the 
> case of the xml output method, text/html in the case of the html and xhtml 
> output methods, and text/plain in the case of the text output method. 
This fails to mention what the media type should be for the other standard output methods: json and adaptive.

I'm not sure about adaptive (implementation-defined?), but json should probably have the proper IANA encoding: "application/json".
