[microformats-discuss] url canonicalization

[Ryan King]

A problem that comes up for anyone that works on systems which  
consume web resources is the problem of url canonicalization. I'm  
sure many of you have run into situations like this. One example is  
LiveJournal, where each blog is available at

http://username.livejournal.com/
http://livejournal.com/~username/
http://livejournal.com/users/username/

Perhaps there is a case for using a microformat for declaring one of  
these as canonical. It doesn't seem to me that rel="canonical" or  
rel="self" will cover this.

Ideas?
