Done. Pages like http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/ now have <link rel="alternate" type="application/rdf+xml" href="rdf" />
so that "an intelligent web crawler could then automatically retrieve the licensing terms, without having to know anything about CC."

Now that we've got intelligent web crawlers covered, how about a version suitable for distributing along with works, as is mentioned in the license texts themselves?

Nobody knows how to do this. The only examples given are using the URI for the licenses.
