Add SVG file extensions to mime.types

• Additional Comments From dmh@dmh.org.uk 2002-07-09 18:20 ------- This is why I suggested associating the de facto SVG extensions with the application/xml media type -- people want to use SVG graphics /now/, but we're stymied because SVG doesn't have it's own IANA-recognised type. Associating it with a recognised XML media type strikes me as a good stop-gap, rather than leaving any ".svg" files to be served up as text/plain.

The only other workaround is to use the ".xml" extension for all SVG files, e.g. <http://www.mozilla.org.uk/svg/lion.xml>.

No wonder the kids love Flash. ;o)

(Left bug as WONTFIX.)
