Hi Bob,
I need to think about this a little more, but these are records that I had previously exposed on GeoSpecies as cc with attribution., so they were a change.
Also they include a photograph as supporting evidence, see foaf:depiction.
These were mainly done to create examples that showed an Occurrence, Individual, Identification and used the ietf proposal for an "Area" geo e.g.
"geo:44.86528100,-87.23147800;u=10".
The example creates these in one RDF file, but assertions etc. can be made about these individual entities as if they were separate things.
I think most data sets will probably need some sort of license that allows them to be used but with some sort of attribution.
I would be interested in hearing people's opinion on what they would recommend.
Also these records were created for purposes of the discussion, there are some other aspects that I will probably change in the future.
Below is the actual RDF for the #Occurrence element.
<dcterms:title>Boloria selene Occurrence Shivering Sands Natural Area Woods 2005-07-24/2005-07-24</dcterms:title>
<cc:attributionName>Peter J. DeVries</cc:attributionName>

<geo:long>-87.23147800</geo:long>
<!-- The dates should be refactored into a standard date vocabulary -->
<txn:startDate>2005-07-24</txn:startDate>
<txn:endDate>2005-07-24</txn:endDate>
<!-- collector and identified by should be foaf:Person -->
<!-- identificationDate should have a standard type for year -->
<txn:identificationDate>2008</txn:identificationDate>
<!-- The literals below should be replaced with URI's -->
<txn:institutionCode>IRCW</txn:institutionCode>
<txn:collectionCode>PJDPO</txn:collectionCode>
<txn:catalogCode>PJDPO000179</txn:catalogCode>
</txn:Occurrence>

Without regard to the structure of your RDF but rather to your license
attribute on txn:Occurrence, you might care that
(a) the CC Public Domain Mark license is intended to apply to work
that was once copyrighted but now isn't.
(b)For lots of reasons, CC now recommends against the use of CC
licenses for data ( [1], [2] ).
(c)Without regard to whether data is copyrightable, CC licenses
only apply to copyrightable material; in all countries subscribing to
the Copyright Convention, only creative works are copyrightable; I'm
pretty sure you don't intend that an Occurrence is a creative work (or
even that its expression is--at least an expression in a standard
form).
