title: What is the proper media-type for HAL+JSON?
body: <p>I'm using Spring to create a RESTful service and I'm curious about the syntax for media-types.</p>
  
  <p>From my understanding, the general media-type for HAL+JSON is <code>application/hal+json</code>. Also, from my understanding, a vendor-specific custom media-type that supports HAL+JSON would be something like <code>application/vnd.api.entity.hal+json</code>. However, I have also seen <code>application/vnd.api.entity+hal+json</code>. Which one is correct?</p>
  
  <p>Also, what would the correct wild-card type be for HAL+JSON? Would it be <code>application/*.hal+json</code> or <code>application/*+hal+json</code>. Links to any pertinent RFC's would be appreciated. Thanks!</p>
