Re: Content License Expression?

Wow...so that vocabulary is...very..."complete."

For my part, I think this WG will need to focus on something much simpler
along the lines of a "hasLicense" property--who's definition would be not
dissimilar to "conformsTo".

Here's a handful I'd pick (one) from:
http://creativecommons.org/ns#license
 - "A Work has license a License."
http://dublincore.org/documents/2012/06/14/dcmi-terms/?v=terms#license
 - "A legal document giving official permission to do something with the
resource."
https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/vocab#license
 - "license refers to a resource that defines the associated license."
http://schema.org/license
 - "A license document that applies to this content, typically indicated by
URL."

If I were picking it now, I'd go with `dcterms:license` since we already
define `dcterms` as an available prefix.

So...assign me the action, I guess, and I'll finish scoping it to the
various appropriate ranges. :)

Cheers!
Benjamin
