I don't think the METSRights Schema is able to describe Embargos. Sure, 
it can describe object permissions/access rights, but it doesn't have a 
vocabulary to describe the starting/ending periods of the embargo (as 
Mark Wood stated). When I chose to use the METSRights Schema for AIPs, I 
chose it specifically for its ability to translate DSpace Resource 
Policies (which it can do quite well).

So, we'd need to determine a different way to express embargoes so that 
they can be fully restored. As Richard R mentioned earlier in this 
thread, if we express the embargoes as *metadata* (in DC or in a 
separate schema altogether, like an "ADMIN" schema), then they can be 
stored in AIPs automatically and restored automatically (as AIPs 
auto-store & restore all metadata associated with an Object). This is 
how the current Embargo implementation works.

If we feel storing embargo information as 'metadata' is insufficient, 
then we will need to find a different way to translate them into the 
AIPs. Off the top of my head, I'm not sure of a generic schema that is 
geared towards describing embargoes. I just don't believe that 
METSRights is what we are looking for.
