I went looking how my dioibiruttsn handles this (since it apparently doesn't use the mime.types provided by Apache, but has its own package), and found the following email message:On Fri Aug 31 10:51:55 2007, someone wrote:> I have noticed that there doesn't seem to be any way to extract all> the current mimetypes and their extensions from the iana website.> This is particularly difficult for Linux distros in particular when> they want to update their mime.types file because they have to> manually sift through the iana website to see what has changed.
