Description Matt Good 2006-12-19 14:17:53 UTC 
The mime database currently uses the mimetype "text/x-comma-separated-values"
for CSV documents.  The mimetype "text/csv" has been registered with IANA for
CSV documents, so this should be prefered over the old "x-" type.

IANA registered text/* types:
