[MOBY-l] text-plain and text_plain

[Michael DiBernardo]

I am peeking curiously at the types "text_plain" and "text-plain" in  
the Objects ontology. (One uses an underscore and the other uses a  
dash, if you weren't able to see the difference straightaway).

Roughly 130 types in the Objects ontology derive from text-plain,  
while roughly 50 derive from text_plain. What is the reasoning behind  
this division, if any? Is this just a common typo/formatting issue  
that we haven't gotten around to dealing with yet? I would classify  
this as a pretty substantial annoyance, since it appears to make many  
compatible services appear incompatible with one another.

Is there anything I might be able to do straightaway that could  
contribute to fixing this, if it indeed needs fixing?
