The ODRL/DCMI metadata usage Profile will document how to make combined use of the rights-related DCMI metadata terms and the ODRL rights expression language. This will enable richer rights management information to be captured along with DCMI descriptive metadata and support wider interoperability with DRM and open content licensing systems.

The ODRL/DCMI Profile WG is a joint WG between the ODRL and DCMI communities.
