Relationships
Additional XFN rel values may be required (e.g. "uncle"; see above for further examples).
From existing publishing practices, it seems likely that primary relationships ("mother", "father", "son", "daughter", "brother", "sister", "husband", "wife"; or perhaps the gender-neutral "parent", "child", "sibling", "spouse") are more commonly expressed when linking from one page to another; though non-marriage partnerships and short-term liaisons should also be catered for.
