discussion of the Creative Commons Metadata work

Hrm.. XMP is open as well, right?
(btw, what's XMP?)

Anyway, it seems that it could be done easily with some slight modification to current software (Photoshop, GIMP) which would be great.

Now, when I think about it, AVI files could be tagged in the same way.. and OGGs, and MKVs...

/me starts looking at ways to semantise

This is an ongoing issue for me. I have searched the web for answers. I own Photoshop 7 & CS (8) for Windows. Adobe clearly states that PNG files won't accept XMP metadata inserts. This is such a weird thing since PNG is open source, you'd think that there would be an easy way to pop XMP data into these files.

Let me know if someone has found out what, if anything, can be done.

Thank you!!!

After reading some parts of the W3C's spec for PNG, it seems easy 
enough to create a chunk for licence metadata that could then easily 
fit into a PNG file (photo, webcomic) for tagging files. The contents 
of the chunk would be the same as the mp3 data, although if you really 
wanted we could stick some RDF in there.
      

Does anyone have access to Adobe tools, including their publishing stuff 
in addition to Photoshop? It might be useful to check to see what they 
do, if anything, to stick their XMP RDF in PNG files.
