Is not possible to embed the license in the metadata, the same way we 
are including it at OCAL?

I think you are confused here, see 
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html

"Public Domain

Being in the public domain is not a license--rather, it means the 
material is not copyrighted and no license is needed. Practically 
speaking, though, if a work is in the public domain, it might as well 
have an all-permissive non-copyleft free software license. Public domain 
status is compatible with the GNU GPL."

IMO, "Repository" does not sound that good.
And I like us using the same naming scheme as our other project, Open 
Clip Art Library
