I have been selected as the Applications Area Directorate reviewer for this draft (for background on appsdir, please see http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/app/trac/wiki/ApplicationsAreaDirectorate). Please resolve these comments along with any other Last Call comments you may receive. Please wait for direction from your document shepherd or AD before posting a new version of the draft. Document: draft-levine-application-gzip-02 Title: The application/zlib and application/gzip media types Reviewer: Julian Reschke <julian.reschke@gmx.de> Review Date: 2012-05-05 IETF Last Call Date: from 2012-05-03 to 2012-05-31 IESG Telechat Date: - Summary: This document defines media types for gzip and zlib compression. It is ready for publication with minor editorial issues. Major Issues: None. Minor Issues: The document needs an IANA Considerations Section. That Section could either contain the registration templates, or just reference them. In the actual templates, I recommend the following changes: "Published specification:" - I would make these pointers to Sections 2 and 3 of draft-levine-application-gzip; referencing the base specs directly here would mean that draft-levine-application-gzip doesn't get referenced in the media types registry at all. "Encoding considerations": <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4288#section-4.8> says this should one of "7bit", "8bit", "framed", or "binary". So maybe change to: "binary - needs base64 or other encoding that allows arbitrary binary data when transmitted over non-binary transports" (or just say "binary"). Best regards, Julian
