This specification defines the 'profile' link relation type that
allows resource representations to indicate that they are following
one or more profiles.  A profile is defined not to alter the
semantics of the resource representation itself, but to allow clients
to learn about additional semantics (constraints, conventions,
extensions) that are associated with the resource representation, in
addition to those defined by the media type and possibly other
mechanisms.
