Actually rel="nofollow' is equivalent to rev="vote-abstain". It means that the status is not asserted by the page.

I was actually thinking of using for something along these lines.  So,
for example, (in Canadian politics) a person could express the "view"
on a bill like:

    I am against <a rev="vote-against"
href="http://laws.justice.gc.ca/en/1995/39/";>Bill C-68</a>.

That would be a splendid use for them.

And on the topic of vote-links vs. relnofollow, notice that vote-
links are actually older than relNoFollow. :D

The original discussion is here:

This is before vote links got a proper HTML syntax
