fix(k9): register application/vnd.k9 without the +nickel suffix - #711
fix(k9): register application/vnd.k9 without the +nickel suffix#711hyperpolymath wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
`k9-svc/SPEC.adoc` line 34 declared `application/vnd.k9+nickel` while `k9-svc/IANA-MEDIA-TYPE-APPLICATION.adoc` registers `application/vnd.k9` *without* a structured-syntax suffix. A live contradiction in `main`, not a design question. Owner ruling (2026-09-01): `application/vnd.k9`, no suffix. Structured-syntax suffixes are intended for widely-registered base syntaxes; `+nickel` is not one, and carrying it into IANA review invites an objection for no gain. Swept the live declarations — `SPEC.adoc` (4), `register.ncl` (3), `README.adoc`, `GUIDE.adoc`, `pedigree.ncl` (the `breed` default). The `.ncl` edits are string-literal values only; no structural change. `docs/IANA-MEDIA-TYPE.adoc` is the *old* `+nickel` registration in full. Rather than rewrite a superseded document, it now carries a SUPERSEDED banner pointing at `IANA-MEDIA-TYPE-APPLICATION.adoc`, matching the convention already used by `REORGANIZATION-PLAN.adoc`. Deliberately untouched: `docs/iana/application-vnd.k9+nickel-registration.txt` (an archived draft whose two mentions are already historical notes) and the two intentional mentions in `IANA-MEDIA-TYPE-APPLICATION.adoc`. Companion to hyperpolymath/k9-ecosystem#38, which sweeps the same contradiction across 24 downstream files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
