RE: [whatwg] Creative Commons Rights Expression Language

Scientific journals are usually printed on paper and such information is
presented in small print.  The recommended element provided for this purpose
in HTML is SMALL, if you insist.
I have never seen a bibliography listing with authorized use information
specified for each entry.  This would make an unnecessary redundancy which
could also be dangerous (do you indemnify the readers if the owner changes
the terms and you fail to update the listing?)

Think of a paper listed at a scientific journal. All of this information
is on the web page in HTML, we're just proposing that they add the metadata.
