It would be nice to have the mime type for NewzBin usenet indexes.

Thanks for your bug report!

What is the purpose of the root-XML namespacing tag?
Comment 3 Pino Toscano 2007-12-25 12:23:33 UTC
Right, none.
(Wonder where I got that from...)

What is it actually useful for?

I'm not sure I understand the question. It is the NNTP equivalent of application/x-bittorrent. If you want an example of an app that would need it: http://www.bnr2.org/

KDE 4.4.4 still provides it with the root-XML namespacing tag. Pino, you remembered why it was there?

Yes, because I kind of forgot to remove it from there, I'll do it now.
In the meanwhile, I'll attach the a new version of the patch, with the test case taken from the specs. I can commit if it is okay.
