[Antelope] Mime Type for miniseed file

I hope this is not too far off topic for this list,
but I have a need to deliver miniseed files over
the Internet and want to assign a mime-type to
them to indicate the link is binary.

Has any convention been suggested or request to
IANA been made?

How about:

application/vnd.iris.mseed  *.msd, *.sd
application/vnd.iris.seed   *.sd
application/vnd.iris.dataless-seed *.dsd

I'm not familiar with how complicated the IANA
approval process is, perhaps more that it is
worth for official publication -- and IRIS
agrees.  Contacting them next.

Thank you,
Hank
