The copyright data elements can be used at the component level for a particular item; for example, in the case of a multi-media work comprising images, music, and textual material, each component may need to reflect a different copyright status. A future version of copyrightMD will seek to address more fully issues with documenting copyright statuses for complex objects. It isn't clear yet if we can just add roles to creators of different components of these complex objects, or if we need to add additional data structures to the schema. If you have interesting materials to provide as test cases, we'd be happy to hear from you.
