    I've changed the reference to RFC3023. I wasn't aware of that RFC.

    As to the explanation.... anyone want to contribute?

    It seems to me more appropriate to have a reference to RFC3023
    if we just want to give background information on the use of "+xml"
    extension in XHTML-Print MIME type.

    "RFC3023 - XML Media Types", M. Murata, S. St.Laurent, and D. Kohn.
    It is available from http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3023.txt.

    People might wonder why XHTML-Print does not follow RFC3236
    if they see an explicit reference in the specification.

    How about add a sentence explaining the rational behind the introduction
    of our own MIME type in Section 6.1?
