Are the contact points for these registrations ok?  The template
calls for a person/email address, but both give URLs:
http://www.zlib.net/ and http://www.gzip.org which is fine
information but perhaps not what's needed?

I have no problem with the publication of this document.  I have one editorial nit that you may take or leave as you see fit.

- The cross referencing notation of "Section [blah]" is confusing given that it uses short-hand names for sections.  Please consider changing these to "Section #" style notation.

IANA has reviewed draft-levine-application-gzip-02 and has the following comments:

IANA has some questions about the actions in this document.

This document, upon approval, requests adding two media types to
the applications media type registry located at:

http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/application/index.html

The two media types to be added are:

zlib
gzip

Currently the application media type library is maintained through
expert review as defined in RFC 5226.

IANA Question ->
1) has the document been reviewed by the Media Type expert?
2) we did not find the "IANA Considerations" section in the document.
Please add the section and document the IANA actions that will need
to be performed in the "IANA Considerations" section.

IANA understands that the addition of the two new media types are
the only actions required of IANA upon approval of this document.
