A copy from the original message:

Compare:

the RDFa of http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ (using http://www.w3.org/2012/pyRdfa/extract?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcreativecommons.org%2Flicenses%2Fby%2F4.0%2F&format=turtle&rdfagraph=output&vocab_expansion=false&rdfa_lite=false&embedded_rdf=true&space_preserve=true&vocab_cache=true&vocab_cache_report=false&vocab_cache_refresh=false)
to
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/rdf 

The latter has a cc:requires cc:Notice which is missing in the former.

The consequence of this is that machine readers could get confused because there are contradicting sources. Also software based on this standard could produce wrong information.

To fix this problem we propose to move the the rdfa of cc:Attribution and add a cc:Notice RDFa tag. We’ve created a pull request that details this change here: https://github.com/creativecommons/creativecommons.org/pull/18

Cheers,

Maarten

The patch seems reasonable. Care to give me the elevator pitch on why
we're doing this? :)
