Attached and below is an update proposal removing the 20170102
unsafe-to-copy designation.

================================================================
PNG CHUNK PROPOSAL: eXIf

SPECIFICATION
=============

The four-byte chunk type field contains the decimal values

101 88 73 102

The eXIF chunk contains EXIF metadata with a length given by the chunk
length.  Such data shall be compatible with specifications issued by
CIPA, "Exchangeable image file format for digital still cameras" [CIPA
DC-008-2016] or its successors.

At most one eXIF chunk shall occur in a PNG stream.  The chunk has no
chunk-specific positioning requirements; it may appear before or after
the IDAT chunks.
