Kouhei Sutou created ARROW-7396: ----------------------------------- Summary: [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
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)
