I now see that the TYPE list for RELATED has been removed and replaced with the list from XFN.

A consequence of this is that the removal of AGENT (from V3) was supposed to be replaced with RELATED with TYPE=agent.

XFN has no "agent" semantics.

Another (ironic) consequence of this is that we now have even more "social network" semantics!! (ie sweetheart, crush, and a strange thing called muse)

I suggest the TYPE list for RELATED becomes a URI.

This will then allow values like:
    http://gmpg.org/xfn/11/friend
    http://purl.org/vocab/bio/0.1/agent  

Cheers
