XMP is adobe's new proprietary format  that implements metadata in files, kinda
like exif, but supposedly somehow better. It is a patented "technology",
however Adobe have provided a "public patent licence"

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp/pdfs/xmp_public_patent_license.pdf

It seems OK to me, but IANAL -- are there any legal issues to consider? The
clause 

"A claim is necessarily infringed only when there is no reasonable way to avoid
infringement of that claim when defining, creating or processing metadata." 

seems a bit nebulous.
