Re: Content License Expression?

It may indeed be in scope; in any case, discussing it through an issue is probably a good idea (even if the group may decide not to follow up on it).

Any proposal here would need to be clear as to the extent of the license, e.g. that it only covers the resource it is associated with and not any resources otherwise referenced from that resource ... so a license on the Annotation does not convey any rights regarding either Body or Target.
