Jun:

I've changed the reference to RFC3023.  I wasn't aware of that RFC.

As to the explanation.... anyone want to contribute?

It seems to me more appropriate to have a reference to RFC3023
if we just want to give background information on the use of "+xml"
extension in XHTML-Print MIME type.

"RFC3023 - XML Media Types", M. Murata, S. St.Laurent, and D. Kohn.
It is available from http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3023.txt.

People might wonder why XHTML-Print does not follow RFC3236
if they see an explicit reference in the specification.

How about add a sentence explaining the rational behind the introduction
of our own MIME type in Section 6.1?
