Review requests: application/news-* + message/news

Hi, the USEFOR WG is about to finish 
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-usefor-usepro>

Section 4 of this draft -12 contains four MIME types:

message/news                  (OBSOLETE)
application/news-transmission (update)
application/news-groupinfo    (new)  
application/news-checkgroups  (new)

See the registration templates below,

MIME type name:           message
MIME subtype name:        news
Required parameters:      none
Optional parameters:      charset, compare message/rfc822
Encoding considerations:  compare message/rfc822 (RFC 2046)
Security considerations:  OBSOLETE, use message/rfc822.
Interoperability considerations:
                          Rarely used; and therefore often
                          handled as application/octet-stream.
                          Disposition should by default be inline.
Published specification:  [SON-OF-1036], RFCXXXX
Applications that use this media type:
                          Some old mail and news user agents.
Intended usage:           OBSOLETE

MIME type name:           application
MIME subtype name:        news-transmission
Required parameters:      none
Optional parameters:      One and only one of "usage=moderate",
                          "usage=inject", or "usage=relay".
Encoding considerations:  A transfer-encoding different from that
                          of the article transmitted MAY be
                          supplied to ensure correct transmission
                          over some 7bit transport medium.
Security considerations:  A news article may be a control message,
                          which if processed could have effects on
                          the recipient host's system beyond just
                          storage of the article.
Published specification:  RFCXXXX
Body part:                A complete proto-article ready for
                          injection into Netnews or an article
                          being relayed to another agent.
Applications that use this media type:
                          Injecting agents, Netnews moderators.
Intended usage:           COMMON

MIME type name:           application
MIME subtype name:        news-groupinfo
Required parameters:      none
Optional parameters:      charset, which MUST be a charset
                          registered for use with MIME text types
                          and has the same syntax as the parameter
                          defined for text/plain [RFC2046].
                          Specifies the charset of the body part.
                          If not given, the charset defaults to
                          US-ASCII [ASCII].
Encoding considerations:  7bit or 8bit MUST be used to maintain
                          compatibility.
Security considerations:  None.
Interoperability considerations:
                          Disposition should by default be inline.
Applications that use this media type:
                          Control message issuers, relaying
                          agents, serving agents.

MIME type name:           application
MIME subtype name:        news-checkgroups
Required parameters:      none
Optional parameters:      charset, which MUST be a charset
                          registered for use with MIME text types
                          and has the same syntax as the parameter
                          defined for text/plain [RFC2046].
                          Specifies the charset of the body part.
                          If not given, the charset defaults to
                          US-ASCII [ASCII].
Encoding considerations:  7bit or 8bit MUST be used to maintain
                          compatibility.
Security considerations:  This media type provides only a means
                          for conveying a list of newsgroups and
                          does not provide any information
                          indicating whether the sender is
                          authorized to state which newsgroups
                          should exist within a hierarchy.  Such
                          authorization must be accomplished by
                          other means.
Interoperability considerations:
                          Disposition should by default be inline.
Applications that use this media type:
                          Control message issuers, relaying
                          agents, serving agents.
