So would the tipjar be specified as part of the Work information? This seems like a good fit for mozCC to support, so I'd like to add it if we're to that point. Thoughts?

As I've mentioned <https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/cc-metadata/2004-January/000269.html> I'd like to adopt foaf:Agent in place of cc:Agent. See example current vis foafified use at <https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/cc-metadata/2004-January/000273.html>. Most response I've gotten to this is positive, so I'm planning to move ahead shortly.
I think it makes sense to make cc:Agent a subclass of foaf:Agent, though I wouldn't recommend using the former going forward (are there any conventions for deprecating RDF Schema classes short of using OWL <http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-owl-semantics-20040210/#owl_DeprecatedClass>, and is there any reason not to add OWL to the CC schema?>
Also, see <http://rdfweb.org/mt/foaflog/archives/2004/02/12/20.07.32/> for a foaf:tipjar proposal. Lots of people are building on FOAF, but a tipjar property could be particularly interesting for CC users -- soliciting donations flows naturally from free content offerings, and lots of people seem to expect CC to do something in this area. Adding support for a generic pointer to a tipjar seems like a very low-cost/risk way to get started.
I have a lame imagination, but how about a metadata-aware media player that makes a "$", or "donate", or "patron" button active when playing media that is associated with metadata that specifies a tipjar URI as a 0th-generation app?
