I have been rdfising the sideeffects database for Bio2RDF over the last week. It is linked pretty well to stitch so there is value in having the actual information in RDF. When it is complete the scripts will be available for others to also use to perform the rdfisation themselves. I haven't been focusing on the license metadata but as they aren't using the same license for all of their files it would be good to go back and encode which license each piece of information is released under.
