    Hi folks,

    I am now delighted to be eating crow - the IESG has
    approved 'image/tiff' as an IETF Proposed Standard.

    Cheers,

    Subject: Protocol Action: Tag Image File Format (TIFF) - image/tiff MIME
    Sub-type Registration to Proposed Standard

    The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Tag Image File Format
    (TIFF) - image/tiff MIME Sub-type Registration'
    <draft-ietf-fax-tiff-regbis-05.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This
    document is the product of the Internet Fax Working Group. The
    IESG contact persons are Ned Freed and Patrik Faltstrom.

    Technical Summary

      This document describes the registration of the MIME sub-type
      image/tiff, used to indicate the use of the Tag Image File
      Format (TIFF) defined by Adobe. This document refines an earlier
      sub-type registration in RFC 1528 [TPC.INT] and supersedes
      RFC 2302.

    Working Group Summary

      The group came to consensus on the documents as written.
      Moreover, these documents are also to a large degree agreed
      to by the ITU study group that is defining similar
      functionality in the ITU protocol suite.

    Protocol Quality

      The specification was reviewed for the IESG by Ned Freed.
