(registered 2006-03-23, last updated 2020-05-04) Name: Alexis Tamas Email: alexis.tamas&op3ft.org Media type name: application Media subtype name: vnd.frogans.ltf Required parameters: N/A Optional parameters: N/A Encoding considerations: 8bit Security considerations: This media type represents very simple markup documents called Frogans short-cuts. These documents only contain a Frogans address and they are specified in version 2.1 of the Frogans Slide Description Language (FSDL) technical specification (https://www.frogans.org/en/resources/fsdl/access.html). There are no security issues associated with this type. This media type represents no executable content and does not require integrity or confidentiality protection. Interoperability considerations: This type is interoperable on any system. Published specification: The specification of this type is included in version 2.1 of the Frogans Slide Description Language (FSDL) technical specification (https://www.frogans.org/en/resources/fsdl/access.html). Applications which use this media: - on the client side: some old versions of Frogans Player - on the server side: HTTP servers Fragment identifier considerations: N/A Restrictions on usage: N/A Additional information: 1. Deprecated alias names for this type: N/A 2. Magic number(s): N/A 3. File extension(s): .LTF 4. Macintosh file type code: N/A 5. Object Identifiers: N/A General Comments: Frogans is a medium for publishing content and services on the Internet. From its inception in 1999, the medium was designed as a generic software layer running on top of the original Internet infrastructure (i.e., the TCP and IP protocols and the Domain Name System (DNS)), alongside other existing layers such as E-mail or the World Wide Web. The Frogans Slide Description Language (FSDL) is an XML-based markup language used to create and publish Frogans sites on the Internet. The 'leaptofrogans' URI scheme is a mechanism enabling end-user applications, such as Web browsers or E-mail clients, to launch Frogans Player on a given Frogans site. The official Web site of the Frogans technology is https://www.frogans.org/ Person to contact for further information: 1. Name: Alexis Tamas 2. Email: alexis.tamas&op3ft.org Intended usage: Obsolete This type was used for the distribution of Frogans short-cuts on the Internet. It was registered in 2006 to work with version 2.1 of the Frogans Slide Description Language (FSDL) technical specification. This type is no longer used as of version 3.0 of the FSDL technical specification (https://www.frogans.org/en/resources/fsdl/access.html) and has been replaced by another mechanism, namely the 'leaptofrogans' URI scheme, which contains a Frogans address and is described in RFC 8589 (https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8589). The use of a media type for the distribution of Frogans short-cuts on the Internet was determined to be unsatisfactory for the reasons described in section 2 of RFC 8589. For example, using a media type from a Web page to launch another application did not always work, especially on mobile devices.
