If you want to post to the collection the feed came from, you can use the 
<app:collection href='...'> link. If you need to post to a different 
collection, then you'd need a link relation that describes the specific 
relationship between the feed (or entry) and the collection being linked to; 
"collection" would be too vague.

For example, a blog entry might have a "media" collection that holds its 
media resources and a "comments" collection that is used for commenting on 
the article.
