David et al, Section 10.2 has a title of "Link Relations Registry" but the URL given is "https://www.iana.org/assignments/rdap-extensions/ rdap-extensions.xhtml" -- it looks like the intent is to register link relations given the content of the entries, so the URL needs to be corrected.
Assuming that's the case, I see that 'up' is already registered, so that registration is not necessary. Both that and the remaining requests are extremely generic terms, and so aren't appropriate to register in a specific protocol's document; experience shows that doing so misleads readers to believe that these terms are specific to that protocol and not useable elsewhere. Instead, I'd suggest registering them in a separate, standalone document, using generic descriptions that are broadly applicable; your document can then refine their semantics in a specific context. I suspect the HTTPAPI WG would be amenable to such work. Alternatively, you could register link relation types specific to your application; for example, "rdap-up" and so forth. I also notice that you define compound link relation types, e.g., "up-active" and "top-active". Consider defining a separate "active" relation type (again, either generically, or specific to your application, depending on your preferences), which can then be used in combination with other types -- e.g., "top active" and "up active".
