Split from #158 , in the context of https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-poe-comments/2017Apr/0005.html :
The POE pattern is centered on rights statements (which for us correspond to the POE "policy" notion). And the property that indicates the policy that applies to an asset (odrl:target) goes from the policy to the asset.
The most common pattern, and we believe the one that fits most application scenarios, is the one where links in the other direction and use properties that are usually used for representing metadata on assets, like “simple” (DC) properties. Our (rightsstatements.org) specific approach to this can be seen in the "Class for Rights Statements" and "Object Metadata Examples" at http://rightsstatements.org/files/170106requirements_for_the_technical_infrastructure_for_standardized_international_rights_statements_v1.2.pdf
It's also in the ccRel W3C submission: https://www.w3.org/Submission/ccREL/ and https://creativecommons.org/ns (using cc:license/xhtml:license)
But I guess you're already quite familiar with the pattern anyway…
Of course I’m not saying that the ODRL pattern is bad. It is fully legit, imho. But considering existing practices, I think the matter of the equivalence between patterns should be given a much more prominent place, and be ironed out to remove any doubts one could have.
As a matter of fact it seems you are aware of the problem: the RDF/OWL document refers to a correspondence between expressing rights statements with dct:license and the “official” pattern (section 5.1.1, https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/WD-odrl-vocab-20170223/#rdfowl )
This goes in the right direction, but:
