How about just using
<LINK REV="made" HREF="http://www.bsdi.com/hyplan/sanders.html">
Which is already in the spec. If you want to send the "owner" (aka the
"maker") then your browser should use the POST method to that address.
This would also allow you to point to things like newsgroups (which the
browser would clearly point out before you posted the article of course).
