<link rel=...> in head section

[Nicklin, Kelly]

What is the purpose of the following tag?
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS"
href="http://teachers.ops.org/nicklink/xml/rss.xml" />

Manila adds it, I assume through {meta}. It doesn't do anything in a
graphical browser, but does show in Lynx and non-graphical browsers. Taking
the link pulls up a download prompt.

Is there a way to turn this off?
