Subject: [fitsmime] proposed FITS MIME types Internet Draft


> ADASS is coming up soon, and we expect to submit the FITS MIME
> Internet Draft for official review by the FITS committees in about a
> month.  As before, the documents are available on the web at
> http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/fits/mime/rfcFITS.txt
> with supporting commentary and documentation at
> http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/fits/mime/
>
> There has been no change in the content of the Internet Draft since
> June.  The only point left unresolved from previous discussions was
> whether the image/fits MIME type SHOULD or MUST have at least one
> pixel.  This question seems to be most relevant in the context of
> how VO applications might return indications of error.
>
> Please have a look at the Internet Draft.  The next IETF meeting
> is in mid November, and the queues for submitting new proposed
> Internet Drafts will reopen after that.
