--- i would agree that you can't infer information of just
ANY URL,
but because the publisher has EXPLICITLY added the rel-tag,
i would
say that you can.

The example of:
http://weather.exam
ple.com/oaxaca
certainly LOOKS like it is about oaxaca, but you can't
safely make
that assumption.

If a published adds additional information and excplicitly
says this
is a TAG about oaxaca, then they are asserting something
about the
link.

No matter how you slice it, you have to trust that the user
is
representing the metadata correctly, wether it is part of
the URL, the
title, the nodeValue or somewhere else. If you can't
trust the
publisher with the a tag and tagspace, why would you trust
them with
the data elsewhere?

I'd say if you're restricted to using a single tag space,
and you  
don't have enough control over that tag space to create
directories  
(a functionality available on any server), you have an
exceptional  
case not covered by rel-tag.  But there's no reason you need
to  
restrict your markup to what's covered by rel-tag.  If
there's some  
alternative format to the URLs in your mandatory tag space,
just  
adapt the tools you want to look for your format.  Almost
all of them  
are open source.

Peace,
Scott
