text/xsl has never been registered (although it was used in some
examples in various documents, and it works in IE)

following the new house style for xml releated mime types it's _supposed_
to be text/xslt+xml but

text/xml

is also correct (as xslt is XML) and has the benefit of working in
IE Mozilla and netscape, so I'd use text/xml.

Is there any news on the status of RFC 3023[1] section 8.17 use of "application/xslt+xml" for this purpose?
