Hydra rights metadata
Having initially thought that we would use a METS-based rights metadata schema, the team has decided to use something simpler. This is based on an Access Rights and Use Rights report written by Liz Gushee at the University of Virginia. You can contact her at emg2j [at] virginia [dot] edu.
Modified after a Hydra meeting 2 Feb 2010 to move LDAP groups etc into the <machine> section and to allow 'type' in <human>. Further modified 27 Aug 2010 to make explicit the 'create' type in the access section.
