Good question, Tarmo. You are right that notices cannot be added through the chooser. Instead, the idea is for licensors to associate them with the work by including them in close proximity with the licensing statement.

Here is an example of best practices (ignore that this is also an example of an offline work) -- http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking_your_work_with_a_CC_license#Example:_Offline_document

I’m unable to find a satisfying answer in the wiki, so I’m bothering the list.

The 4.0 version of the licenses, 3(a)1A says as follows:
===
retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor with the Licensed Material:
identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed Material and any others designated to receive attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by the Licensor (including by pseudonym if designated);
a copyright notice;
a notice that refers to this Public License;
a notice that refers to the disclaimer of warranties;
a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the extent reasonably practicable;
===

The license chooser cannot be used to add
- the copyright notice
- disclaimer of warranties

So, if one would like to add those, how are they supposed to be added to RDFa, XMP, textual, and other representations of the license? Or are they just added as separate notices, somehow close to the actual published and licensed content? Best practices?
