Apparently, the preferred mime-type for javascript is changing...

[getify]

In this thread, and more specifically here, apparently the long-held preference of application/javascript is switching to text/javascript.

It would be appreciated if this utility would update accordingly.

Interesting. Please file this with the https://github.com/jshttp/mime-db project. That's where this module pulls it's MIME definitions from.

See jshttp/mime-db#194.

Just for clarification, does this package need to do anything extra to receive the now updated .js MIME type from the "mime-db" registry?

I do need to update the mime-db dependency when that changes, but the changes you're referring to in mime-db have not been published yet.

Ping me here when that happens and I'll push a new release.

Ahhh, I just saw that the issue tracking it had been closed, but didn't realize that the release hadn't happened.

Since that issue was also locked, I don't expect it will get any more notifications when such a release happens. Hopefully @dougwilson can let us know here when it does. :)

Hi @broofa , I will let you know. I recently went to make a release, but found nvm is broken for our build. I opened an issue on nvm and the issue is fixed, but nvm has not yet made a release with the fix. I will get a new mime-db releaased as soon as that happens 👍
