I'm not sure if this has been announced here or not yet, but just in
case...

Note that DCMI have now approved two new metadata properties -
dcterms:license and dcterms:rightsHolder - as follows:

Term Name: license
URI: http://purl.org/dc/terms/license
Label: License
Definition: A legal document giving official permission to do
something with the resource.
Comment: Recommended best practice is to identify the license using
a URI. Examples of such licenses can be found at
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/.
Type of Term: element-refinement
Refines: http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/rights
Status: conforming
Date Issued: 2004-06-14

Term Name: rightsHolder
URI: http://purl.org/dc/terms/rightsHolder
Label: Rights Holder
Definition: A person or organization owning or managing rights over
the resource.
Comment: Recommended best practice is to use the URI or name of the
Rights Holder to indicate the entity.
Type of Term: element
Status: conforming
Date Issued: 2004-06-14
