Is someone currently working on the object collection backend? I am getting a
"PS215 - Error: Mime type mismatch on file 'xxxx.xx'." error on all the files
I'm trying to upload. Should I wait until tomorrow?

The problem was that the files contained some special characters, even though
the files were all encoded in the Windows 1252 code set.

Here are the characters I had to remove:

It does a check to verify that text files only contain ASCII characters, so 
yes, hex 'F1', 'B4' and 'B7' would cause it to throw this error.

Maybe a more accurate/descriptive message could be thrown in this case? I got
lucky and guessed the correct solution.
