Description Stanislav Brabec 2004-09-10 02:44:49 UTC
MIME type text/calendar is registered by IANA, MIME type text/x-vcalendar is not
standardized, and because it defines the same magic (at least in uppercase), it
causes conflict for determining local files.

MIME type text/directory is registered by IANA, MIME type text/x-vcard is not
standardized and should not contain any glob or magic.

However RFC does not say anything about standard extension for text/directory,
one of most commonly used is *.vcf, mistakenly added to text/x-vcalendar.


How to fix it:
Move all entries for text/x-vcalendar to text/calendar.
Move all entries from text/x-vcard to text/directory.
Move <glob pattern="*.vcf" /> text/directory.
