In case folks aren't aware of it, Godfrey Rust's D-Lib article,
"Metadata: The Right Approach"
http://www.dlib.org/dlib/july98/rust/07rust.html
uses "event" as an important kind of metadata category in which new
rights come into being. It's a controversial article that's probably
worth bearing in mind, if only because it uses the term "event" in a
very different way from the current thread.
