@azizshamim Is this in the GHP mime types file? We're trying to maintain parity.

I don't know how he would know that because he doesn't have access to their servers?

I created a test repo, and it seems that WOFF files are served as application/x-font-woff (as expected), but WOFF2 files are still being served as application/octet-stream, which probably means GitHub hasn't added this on their end yet.

@envygeeks Aziz works on GitHub's infrastructure. He knows. :)

@alfredxing Ok, then it's time for a support request! I'll send it now.

On hold at the moment. Got a response from GitHub, but the W3C spec doesn't specify this MIME Type (and is vague about which one to use).

[envygeeks]

The spec states application/font-woff2 which will more than likely be what it will land as in the final spec.

@envygeeks Are you looking at http://dev.w3.org/webfonts/WOFF2/spec/#IMT ?

We've deployed the corresponding change on the GitHub side. GitHub Pages will now serve .woff2 files with a Content-Type header value of application/font-woff2.
