Hi,
first, as we can probably reuse part of it:
Please, please, if you want to replace it, check what GNU/Linux does
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/shared-mime-info-
spec/shared-mime-info-spec-latest.html
If we need to replace the syntax I don't see any point in reinventing
the wheel, reusing the XDG one is a much better option (and we can still
propose updates to it).
(I've thought for some time already that we should try to merge with their
db if possible)
This is exactly one of the aims, the general idea is to have both a
repository of sample files and a rules db which in platform independent.
The general idea is to release a library and with a few tools that can be
used to speed up the work. I'm in favor of reusing their work but I need to
still look a bit further : p
