Abstract Abstract
This document proposes updates to the ECMAScript media types, This document proposes updates to the ECMAScript media types,
superseding the existing registrations for "application/javascript" superseding the existing registrations for "application/javascript"
and "text/javascript" by adding an additional extension and removing and "text/javascript" by adding an additional extension and removing
usage warnings. This document updates RFC4329, "Scripting Media usage warnings. This document updates RFC4329, "Scripting Media
Types". Types".
