Hi Oscar. I run musicindex.org, a music index of V4V feeds. Fountain feeds are the best case in it: each of the 330 Fountain albums names its publisher feed, and the 70 Fountain publisher feeds list their albums back. Only one fact is missing: whether the publisher is the artist or a label.
Would Fountain write rel="artist" or rel="label" on both sides of a publisher link? The publisher chooses once: Not stated, Artist or Label. "Not stated" writes nothing. Kolomona proposed the attribute in namespace discussion #579, and it waits for implementations: https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/discussions/579
I have a full description with XML examples, if it helps.
