I don't think "access the media" means that you should claim that you can open the file. When you list a MIME type, you're claiming something more than just an ability to open the file. You're claiming appropriateness as a default handler. I expect that you can open an image without claiming that Etoys is suitable for opening images. If not, then please file a bug for the datastore. Only the application/x-squeak-* things are appropriate. (maybe not even all of those, but I don't know what each type is for) _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
