| image/webp is missing from the mimetypes.py list of valid mimetypes. webp is an open-source image format and uses vp8 as a codec. | ||

| Is there an IANA registration for this? Any other standards references to it would be helpful, if it doesn't. See issue 10730 for an example of the research that went in to the last mimetypes addition. | ||

| No IANA registration. According to https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Webp this is a Google-specific proposal rather than a standard. Thus addition would seem premature at this time. | ||

| On a related note, the Google-originated video codec WebM is used out there and supported by various software. |
