[Geoserver-devel] mime type for css styles

Hi all,

For the pluggable styles work we need to assign a mime type for css styling. Any thoughts on what should be?

I was thinking a “vendor” mime type makes most sense. A common convention for vendor mime types is:

application/vnd..+

With that I was thinking “application/vnd.geoserver.geocss+css”

Thoughts?
