-----------------------------------------------------------

I haven't read much on the format, but I'd be tempted to maybe have that more 
like {{application/x-dbf; vendor=FoxBASE; type=plus_with_memo}}, or to have it 
more in keeping with the BDB / PE / DITA types, maybe {{application/x-dbf; 
format=FoxBASE; type=plus_with_memo}} or {{application/x-dbf; 
format=plus_with_memo; vendor=FoxBASE}} (depending on what the actual variances 
are)
