An excellent point. Perhaps these should use rel="home" :)
<link rel="home" type="application/atom+xml" href="/xml/feed.atom">
The value of rel, if present, will vary based on relation * the feed for *this* page - rel="alternate" * the feed for main feed for this blog, in general - rel="home" * other feeds the author reads or recommends - rel="suggested" * any other feeds linked to for any reason at all - no rel, just the type and href
Is this acceptable? I'm not completely happy with "home" and "suggested" because they're not specified as link types in the HTML specs [1]. Sadly, it seems the HTML authors didn't consider these cases. "home" seems to be an informal standard. Close matches in the HTML list are "index", "contents", and "start". All of these are inaccurate, but I think "contents" is the best fit.
Actually, I think "start" is the best fit. The main feed is often not a table of contents to the entire weblog, but something partial. It is, however, the "starting point of the collection".
BTW, you might want to take a look at
