I would consider myself an 'average webby person' yet I have no idea
what RDFa is at all. Having said that I am about to go and look it up!
The point here, I think, is how the 'normal' person uses a licence and,
from what I can see from this thread, the way one would go about
acquiring and using a licence from the CC website and then putting the
generated HTML code from the page there, that does it and is, in theory,
completely validated?
