Despite Cameron opinion, have more and more specific types IS NOT THE SOLUTION.<br><br>See www, there have mime-type for that and it's a really really big mess.<br>No ? See that and cry => <a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html</a><br>
<br>If I see my crawler stats I can see that :<br>90% of gopherspace is 0 Text or 1 Menu elements...<br>7 % is Image generic type.<br>0,3 % is h URL: magic type<br><br>Other type are < 0,2%.<br><br>You see what I want to show ?<br>
<br>I think a more usefull thing will be to complete the RFC.<br>I mean tell WHAT CLIENT SHOULD DO FOR ALL TYPES.<br><br>For example give an algorithm to fix how client get ressources :<br><br>
