[cc-metadata] linking to a license with html

Hi,
i just read the article about how to markup links so point to a license. 
Sugestion was <link rel="license" .../> resp. <a rel="license" ...>...</a>.

I then read that this would only make a statement about the resource beeing 
linked to, but no statement about the resource this link is residing. This is 
correct, but no problem: Besides the "rel" attribute there also is the "rev" 
attribute you could use. So <link rel="license" rev="????" .../> would do the 
trick to make a statement that the license, where this link points to, is 
indeed a license for this resource.

Unfortunately my english is not that good to find the proper word to use here. 
I know that the link target is a "license", but i do not know how to name the 
reverse. So if any native english speaker would know the right word...

Regards
Siegfried
