As Leif Longva points, the key aspect is the standarisation. In Europe,
the Driver2.0 "standard" and Openaire project gave the guidelines for
such declarations. Furthermore, the University of Minho issued the
/Dspace openaire add-on/ to ease the adoption of those guidelines. IMHO
this add-on is a "must" for european R&D institutions with Dspace
pre-3.x. (I suspected that the new xOAI interface inherited some of
that excellent work)
With the xOAI inclusion in Dspace 3, it seems to me that the adoption of
those guidelines will be easier (perhaps Joao Melo could validate that?)
For those interested in the application of these concepts (metadata
standarisation) to the real case of openness indication, see "Guidelines
for content providers of the OpenAIRE information space" in

Is anyone aware of a DSpace repository that indicates, in harvestable
metadata, the openness of particular items? We're getting requests
from harvesters to incorporate as metadata indications of whether an
item is publicly accessible (I.e., without restricted authorizations).
Thanks in advance for any examples. Currently running 1.8.2 in our
repository.
All best,
Sarah
