Indeed.  I suggest that you change the references in each template to
include the section number -- not that the document is long enough to
really matter, but I very much like the cleanliness of it.  For
example:

   o  Relation Name: about
   o  Description: Refers to a resource that is the subject of the
      link's context.
   o  Reference: This specification, Section 2.

Link-relations folk, consider this a formal request for review of the
five relations in the above draft.  After comments here, I'll send the
document out for IETF last call.
