When a web site is licensed under Creative Commons, I use the rel-license microformat. When a web site is licensed under regular copyright, I have a boring paragraph element.
<p id="copyright">© 2008 Example Corporation</p>
That id attribute on there is just for CSS styling purposes. I'm wondering if there's some better way to markup a copyright notice that is more semantic. Is this a job for Dublin Core metadata? If so, how do I go about it? (I've never used Dublin Core before.)
Some web sites advocate using a meta tag in the head element:
<meta name="copyright" content="name of owner">
Which might be seen by search engines, but doesn't replace the user-visible notice on the page itself.
