 Old themes use rel="profile" in <head>, twentyten use it in <link>.

 Both ways are ok (http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-profile), and i think
 <link> is better (like in twentyten).

 Currently, theme authors add the profile rel manually. They usualy use XFN
 1.1 profile (http://gmpg.org/xfn/11). To change the profile users need to
 change the template files. This is problematic.

 I think we need to add a profile_rel_link function to wp core and add it
 to wp_head(). This way, when we want to change the profile, we will use
 filters.

 See the attacment.
