Serving static XML files...mime type wrong.

I must be doing something wrong because when serving static files the mime type is set to "application/octet-stream".

Other than patching MimeTypes.C is there a better, zero-code, solution to sending the correct mime type for XML files?

Hey Russ,

Regretfully, no. There's a feature request in the bug tracker to rectify this situation which seems trivial but we never gave it priority.

The only ugly work around I can think of: serve them as a (static) resource.

Maybe this will help :-)
