How to include alternate content in sitemap? #16

I'm running a story telling app for kids (mangoreader.com). We've content in many languages and as a part of our International SEO we need to be able to include alternate links in our sitemaps. How do you generate this using this gem? I searched the docs but couldn't find any information on this.

More info on Sitemaps: rel="alternate"

I'm afraid this is not possible right now. However, using link rel canonical (https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/139394?hl=en) in your pages may provide the same effect.
