Hi Nathan,

Thanks for your reply ;)

OK, I'll try to add this information if the maintainers of evince agree with.

Sorry for my cryptical message :). What I was asking for is about the location
of the license text:

     <rdf:Description rdf:about=''
      xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/'>
      <dc:rights>
       <rdf:Alt>
        <rdf:li xml:lang='x-default' >This work is licensed under a Creative
Commons Reconocimiento 3.0 Estados Unidos License.</rdf:li>
       </rdf:Alt>
      </dc:rights>
     </rdf:Description>

By the way, then xapRights:WebStatement is optional and xapRights:Marked is
compulsory and their locations are:

<rdf:Description rdf:about=''
      xmlns:xapRights='http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/rights/'>
      <xapRights:Marked>True</xapRights:Marked>
      
<xapRights:WebStatement>http://example.com/pdf-metadata.html</xapRights:WebStatement>
</rdf:Description>

So then I'll get the license uri from the resource attribute

I have some concerns about the i18n. I think is good enough to only check 
xml:lang='x-default' and let the user to get the translated information from
the licence uri. The other alternative is to search for a xml:lang compatible
with the locale, but I'm not quite sure if this work is justified (and evince
maintainers are not quite fond of complex patches :)
