# Bikeshedding Assigned Numbers Assignation and Normalization Authority
This directory holds the various registries maintained by the
Bikeshedding Assigned Numbers Assignation and Normalization Authority
(BANANA), as requested by Requests for Bikeshedding.
* One separate text file is created for most registries.
* Additional Media Types and Subtypes created by Requests for
Bikeshedding and not known to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
(IANA) are kept under the `media-types` directory. This contains a
subdirectory for each media type, and a text file for each subtype.
* Monthly reports, sent to the Tildepals mailing list only when changes
have occurred compared to the previous month, may also be archived as
`report-YYYY-MM.txt` text files.
* The `report-changelog.txt` holds the changelog included in each of the
monthly reports, documenting all the changes made to the registries
maintained by the BANANA.
## Redaction
Per Section 3.1 of [RFB 3](../rfb/rfb3.txt), Web Feeds cannot be linked
to on a medium other than another Web Feed without the explicit consent
of the Weed Dealer. To respect this requirement, the redaction process
described in Section 2.1 of [RFB 8](../rfb/rfb8.txt) has been applied to
the Web Feeds registry. All Web Feeds URLs of the registry are
redacted.
