I don't follow probably because I don't
know what is meant by a "RDDL directory".
Is the "RDDL directory" a RDDL document or
the RDDL design? IOW, are you asserting
claims to *a* RDDL page or to *the* RDDL
language design?
I think you mean asserting rights for a
RDDL page and the assets it points to.
So, if the RDDL page is pointing to
some set of resources, are you licensing these?
I don't think that works. Following a link
does not obligate. That is a tenet of the
web architecture.
Or you are licensing the page and the
rights to use it.
It seems you are working on a digital
rights management function for using
RDDL documents or the resources indicated
by the RDDL document.

If they are the author, yes. If not they are not involved in the process
at all!

I just want to provide links to documents (XHTML or RDF or whatever its
nature is) describing the licence under which the RDDL directory may be
used.
