[uf-discuss] rel-tag for hierarchical categories

[Benjamin Carlyle]

G'day,

I'm wanting to use tags as part of my blog entry posts, but I don't like
explicit tagging. I just want a single link at the bottom of each blog
entry to point to its category, and for that to be interpreted as one or
more tags.

Now, rel-tag appears to do the right thing for:
<a
href="http://members.optusnet.com.au/benjamincarlyle/benjamin/blog/software">software</a>

Now I want it to make sense of a hierarchical category system:
<a
href="http://members.optusnet.com.au/benjamincarlyle/benjamin/blog/software/httpsubscription">software/httpsubscription</a>

I think the current proposal would tag this as
"software/httpsubscription", when in fact it really means two tags:
"software"+"httpsubscription".

What will current parsing do (especially technorati) with my input? Is
my data point something that could be applied more generally? Should the
specification cover this case?
