After the discussion about LyX format, has anyone thought of
registering lyx file as one of the MIME-type in IANA? Well, actually
I don't see much advantage in the near future with such registration,
except that it gives a standard calling and reserves .lyx as a
well-known file extension for those programs which use mime-type too.
There are 4 possible mime-types:
application/lyx
application/x-lyx
text/lyx
text/x-lyx
IMO, text/x-lyx seems more appropriate. What do you think? We
could also create the mime-type used for KDE/Gnome and include it in
rpm package.
