Weston Pace commented on ARROW-7396: ------------------------------------ I'll make a draft if there are no objections and send it out to the mailing list. > [Format] Register media types (MIME types) for Apache Arrow formats to IANA > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-7396 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7396 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Format > Reporter: Kouhei Sutou > Priority: Major > > See "MIME types" thread for details: > https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b15726d0c0da2223ba1b45a226ef86263f688b20532a30535cd5e267%40%3Cdev.arrow.apache.org%3E > Summary: > * If we don't register our media types for Apache Arrow formats (IPC File > Format and IPC Streaming Format) to IANA, we should use "x-" prefix such as > "application/x-apache-arrow-file". > * It may be better that we reuse the same manner as Apache Thrift. Apache > Thrift registers their media types as "application/vnd.apache.thrift.XXX". If > we use the same manner as Apache Thrift, we will use > "application/vnd.apache.arrow.file" or something. > TODO: > * Decide which media types should we register. (Do we need vote?) > * Register our media types to IANA. > ** Media types page: > https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml > ** Application form for new media types: > https://www.iana.org/form/media-types -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
