Description Krzysztof Kosiński 2009-01-22 03:27:14 UTC
application/msword-template is not a registered IANA mimetype, and yet it uses the official IANA namespace. It should be renamed to e.g. application/x-msword-template.

This is hardly a problem. This mime-type was used in the wild, which is why we used it. I'd be happy changing this if the mime-type was added recently, but it's been that way since the first shared-mime-info commit.
