The Transport Area requests a Media Type review for the proposed new type application/dialog-info+xml, intended for the IETF tree, and specified http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sipping-dialog-package-05.txt (Section 8.1).
Why does it list .xml as file extension?
Is there anything wrong with using a .xml extension? If yes, what?
Well, e.g. RFC 3236 states: [...] It is not recommended that the ".xml" extension (defined in [XMLMIME]) be used, as web servers may be configured to distribute such content as type "text/xml" or "application/xml". [XMLMIME] discusses the unreliability of this approach in section 3. Of course, should the author desire this behaviour, then the ".xml" extension can be used.
