What's wrong with using the scheme attribute to convey this information? Specifically, I use an AtomPub Category Document for my schemes. This way, I don't have to use a Feed to represent a listing of categories.

Two things:

1: the scheme attribute is a URI indicating the namespace, not a link.

2: the scheme is arguably not adequate to express something like a category feed; it does tell you the vocabulary/type of the category item, but not that there's an alternate/related resource.

Thanks for this clarification. I'm starting to refactor some of my stuff so that the scheme is not relied upon to convey this kind of information. :-)

I think I've had a misinformed understanding of the scheme attribute because most examples I've seen use it in an AtomPub context, and the IRI of the scheme is also the URI of a Category Document.
