adding,

rel="inReplyTo" - This entry responds to or followups to the linked
                  resource.

This would be the relation either between a comment and its main
(parent) entry, between a comment and another comment (threading), or
an entry and an entry elsewhere.

The term "inReplyTo" comes from RFC822.

"inReplyTo" differs from "about" in that "about" is an open commentary
on a given resource and "inReplyTo" is a response, as in a
conversation, on a given resource.
