Add Mimetypes for Subtitle Files #89574
Comments
Since Python is used for webdevelopment, it would be very beneficial for developers to have subtitle files as default mimetypes. |
What standard specifies these MIME types? |
text/vtt is has IANA registration |
Those two looks legit to me. |
Additions to mimetypes have been backported in the past, with the thought that these are not new behaviour added but only entries in a registry (and bringing the python module in line with external data sources) so there’s value and no risk in releasing these additions in point releases. I don’t have a link to the discussion about that, and looking at 4 or 5 recent PRs to mimetype I see that backports haven’t been consistent. So maybe another ticket would be to synchronize the dicts in active branches + record the backport policy somewhere (not sure a comment would be enough, easy to miss at the top of a long dict). |
Thanks all, the suggested srt and vtt were added in #28792. |
