OData

I would like to add some tags to our web app to enable auto-discovery of our odata feeds.

So for example Nerd Dinner has the following tag:

<link rel="odata.service" title="NerdDinner.com OData Service" href="/Services/OData.svc" /><link rel="odata.feed" title="NerdDinner.com OData Service - Dinners" href="/Services/OData.svc/Dinners" />

The trouble is that I have 4 different feeds and am unclear if I am allowed to add multiple link rel="odata.service" to the document.

Where is the specification for this meta tag?

(follow on question, are there any apps that take advantage of this tag that I can use to test out behavior)
