I think that CreativeCommons are promoting a usage of dc:rights that is broken http://creativecommons.org/learn/technology/metadata/implement because a "cc:Agent who holds the copyright on the resource" (their definition), typically just someone's name, is *not* "information about rights held in and over the resource" (our definition). I tried to point this out to them here http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/cc-metadata/2003-March/000098.html but nothing has changed. Is someone from DCMI advising CC? The response from CC to my earlier email would appear to indicate that Eric Miller is (or was)? Do we agree their usage is broken? Can we do something about it? Currently, it looks to me as though CC are populating the semantic Web with semantic nonesense - which doesn't do anyone any favours - certainly not DCMI.
