RFC Editor note:

Please change the "Encoding Considerations" in section 7 to
read:

   Encoding Considerations: This media type consists of binary
   data. The base64 encoding should be used on transports that
   cannot accomodate binary data directly.

Please add a "Security Considerations" section between sections
7 and 8 of the current document. The contents of this section
should read:

   The security considerations for this media type are
   discussed in the security considerations section of
   the media type registration from that appears in
   section 7.
