i’m sorry man but if your vocabulary depends on the concept of property, and not just property but property in its most problematic and troubled form, especially when it comes to the Web, you know, that thing you invented

that’s no good my man

me: well this vocabulary is mostly not useful in view of later work, but it has some unique terms, and there’s probably no harm in it

me, realizing that timbl defined a “Work” as “a piece of intellectual property”:

might just open an issue linking the microformats wiki since that’s what they did for rel="me"

you could probably get an easy RFC writing credit specifying this if that’s something you want on your resume

“The "meta" link header is used to point to a resource which provides metadata about a thing. There are no constraints on the format of this metadata. Implementations MAY use content negotiation to allow clients to request metadata in a particular format.

Security Concerns: None, beyond those present in web linking in general.”
