somebody involved with the IANA add "meta" to the list of registered link relation types; it’s a widely-deployed pattern

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.”

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