[media-types] [IANA #1448628] expert review for draft-pa ntos-hls-rfc8216bis-21 (vendor tree, conflict review)

Hi Murray,

This is the second conflict review request I have for you. This one is modifying application/vnd.apple.mpegurl:

https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/application/vnd.apple.mpegurl

The only changes I see, apart from any changes to referenced sections of the document, are the addition of a "Query parameter considerations" field and the replacement of David Singer, who I understand has retired from Apple, as change controller. Do we need to reach out to David (via a different address) to ask him to approve his replacement? Would that be necessary if Apple were to be listed as change controller rather than another Apple employee, if the existing registration should be considered a "third-party registration," as described in RFC 6838?

See below for the template. As with the other request, this conflict review is listed as "for action" on next week's telechat agenda.

thanks,
Amanda
