We generally try to keep only types really needed for majority of users in nginx's mime.types. I don't really think it's needed for majority of users. See here for relevant discussion in Russian mailing list: ​http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2012-April/046633.html

As my personal discretion may be wrong, I'm leaving this ticket open for now. Decision may be reconsidered if:

• Some rationale provided (i.e. why this is common, why default application/octet-stream isn't good in this case, and adding the type if needed isn't good also).
• There are at least some independent requests for the same type (comment here "I need this too" will be counted as a request).

Additional, mostly unrelated notes:

• Please keep trac in English. Thank you.
• The patch above adds crl into short list of most important types at mime.types start. This is wrong for sure. It should be added (if at all) to "application/" list below.

We met the following scenario: online e-commerce application (somewhat similar to zakupki.gov.ru) deployed in secure environment couldn't access external crl resource because the only web access rule was mime type based. And it didn't allow octet-stream. I do not mind to move the rule anywhere in the file.

Closing this, as there were no additional requests got in 2 months. Adding the type in question should be easy enough for ones who really need it / actually serve files in question.
