VoteLinks was originally proposed in the context of blogs and bloggers' opinions.  Thus if you include that markup in a blog post you are writing, then you are expressing the vote-link one way or another.

Thus in the example of a blog (e.g. with hAtom), the voter is the author of the blog.

If on a page I'm writing about Albert Einstein, I include:

	<a rev="vote-against"
	   href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Physics">

Does that mean that I'm negatively endorsing quantum physics, or that
Albert Einstein did? Or both? Or is this undefined?

*How* can we determine who the voter is?
*Can* we determine who the voter is?
