Thanks Murata-san - from the Microsoft side, I'll get onto this and report back.

Then, WG4 should register the following media types.  I will do so.

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation	pptx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.slide	sldx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.slideshow	ppsx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.template	potx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet	xlsx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.template	xltx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document	docx
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.template	dotx

And Microsoft should register the following media types.  Blog articles are not good enough.

application/vnd.ms-excel.addin.macroEnabled.12	xlam
application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.binary.macroEnabled.12	xlsb
application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12	xlsm
application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12	xltm
application/vnd.ms-officetheme	thmx
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.addin.macroEnabled.12	ppam
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.macroEnabled.12	pptm
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slide.macroEnabled.12	sldm
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slideshow.macroEnabled.12	ppsm
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.template.macroEnabled.12	potm
application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12	docm
application/vnd.ms-word.template.macroEnabled.12	dotm
application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument	xps

Finally, the following media type is very inappropriate.  Its syntax suggests in the standard tree of media types, but it is not registered yet.

application/onenote	onepkg
application/onenote	onetmp
application/onenote	onetoc
application/onenote	onetoc2

Cheers,
Makoto
