thank you for working on this draft. Before you try to get a
specification through Last Call that's possibly at odds with the current
(and as far as I know original) use of the link relationship, it would
perhaps be useful to talk to the current users of this particular link
relationship, and request their review of the specification, and find
out their views on the proposed change to its semantics.
A good place to reach many of the interested parties would be the
spec-prod(_at_)w3(_dot_)org mailing list.
Also, I'd recommend that you contact Ian Jacobs, W3C's head of
communications; he's in charge of the detailed publication requirements
for W3C specifications.
Before these steps have happened, it would appear premature to me to
request publication of this document as an RFC.
If Ian Jacobs is responsible for the things discussed on spec-prod, I'd think
he reads that mailing list, and the mailing list has been aware of the draft
since the first version has been published in October 2011,
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/spec-prod/2011OctDec/0008.html>.
Neither the intention to last call the draft, nor the proposed incompatible
change were announced to that list.
