Hell Max and all,
The creative commons licenses are the world wide leading project for 
licensing open content e.g. images, graphics, texts, publicatioons, 
websites, sounds, music...
http://creativecommons.org/

The usage of XMP for embedding Creative Commons Licences in machine 
readable form into variuos file formats is described here:
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/XMP

If a group of people wants to work on open color palettes with a 
spectral master version, which can be converted to different palette / 
swatch formats, we need to integrate a licence into the master colorpalette.

Max:
Could you explain, why the ICC is developing a spectral based named 
color profile format ? In my eyes, CxF3 and the coming ISO 17972 provide 
the necessary informations.

Best regards
Jan-Peter
