Julian et al,
It's probably worth taking a look at
draft-johnston-addressing-link-relations
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-johnston-addressing-link-relations-00>
as well as it defines both "current" and "latest" as well as
"canonical", "immutable", "mirror", "permalink" and my favourite,
"shortlink". This has been adopted by Wordpress, Drupal & others with a
view to bringing an end to third-party URL shortening services (the rust
of the Internet).
While I support link relations for versioning, I'd prefer to see
relations for generic addressing requirements consolidated in one draft.

Hi Sam,
I'm not convinced that throwing everything into a single document will
be helpful; draft-brown-versioning-link-relations tries to focus on a
small set of things, and, as Jan's feedback shows, it's non-trivial to
get even those things right.
Do you have any *specific* comments with respect to the relations that
it proposes?
Best regards, Julian
